July 1st - The year's half over.

Funny how time really does fly.  I can't believe it is already July 1st.  Fortunately, a front moved thru yesterday and kept the temperatures around 80 degrees.  Far from our Saturday high of 104 (in the shade). 

It is a short work week because of the holiday; so we'll have things to do over the long weekend. 
We were laughing that is was just this time 2 years ago we started building the pole barn that is now the garage / workshop.  Seems just like yesterday.

The weekend was great; Ben still working on the garden weeds and his cast iron cookware cleanup; while I made more pet food, tended the bees and battled the heat.  Ben had to go back into work Friday evening and again on Saturday evening.  We tried to go out to eat Friday night - but refuse to wait for a table anywhere - no matter how good the food is.  HEB was our choice; in-out and fried oysters and shrimp 30 minutes later.  Saturday we managed to get into Pappasitos - sat at the bar and had a wonderful appetizer sampler. 

Sunday morning chores were interrupted with Rain - it came thru and lasted until almost 11AM.  Yes; stayed in bed, enjoying the rain and  mimosas.  The rest of the day was pretty uneventful after a slow start; but we always manage to get something accomplished.

Happy 4th July Holiday to all.
