happy blues

And just as I was about to say that I can't stand to wear sweaters for six long months...mother nature has granted warmth up here.

Wow, it got hot all of a sudden! I cannot stress how much I adore New England "heat," which is not really super hot and not really all that humid. Just lovely heat that lasts long enough to make good use of the balcony, perfect the iced coffee recipe, enjoy some swimming in Mendum's Pond (which reminds me so much of northern Minnesota with the red pines, rocky little islands, clear cold water...sigh). I *might* have enjoyed some skinny dipping there last year.

Poor Zoe has not had the chance to catch up. After all, it's in the 30's at night, and she still has her winter coat on. The Zoe fur is accumulating like tumble weeds while she frantically tries to shed the warmth. Remind me to post about her, ahem, interactions with a male hound dog twice her age. Me-ow! And her subsequent cold shoulder after he rebuffed her very unabashed advances. Actually, that's all you need to know. I was slightly horrified and really kinda grossed out, truth be told.

Anyhoodle, it's a great day for the blues. Delta blues, courtesy of my little sis. Swimming season, coming soon!
