Well now ... 23 triple-digit days so far this year and a 107-degree scorcher that ranks as the hottest day of this year; the ninth straight day of triple-digit heat at the end of the fourth-hottest July on record in North Texas.

And the chores still gotta be done ... got the hay knocked down ... just have to bring it in ... cleaning up downed trees been ignored during this heat; better off as firewood than blockin' the roadway during the Fall storms hopefully coming.

On the wind ... smell some fine grilling ... better head back to the house and fix that pitcher of DB's famous margaritas ... Lady J expects along with her barbeque. Thanks for visiting ... and now today's poetry from Poetry, Texas... Y'All come back soon ... adios
