How boring am I to write about the weather? But here in the PNW, we are complaining about the summer that hasn't yet arrived. In fact, we are putting sweaters on our trees! Check out the pictures and story of our local "yarn bombing" or "knit bombing as it's called.
We really shouldn't be complaining, however, considering that many parts of the country are having a massive, dangerous heat wave. We are hovering around the low 70's, while many places in the U.S. are in the high 90's or 100's!
This picture, however, sent from my father who is roasting in the Arizona summer heat, says it all!
