Had a cool spell the other day but back to the heat again.  They are predicting it will hit 120 down in Pheonix in a few days. Glad we live up here on the bench although we may hit a 100 here too.  Records being broken.

Went down to the river today for a while.  Much cooler down there.  We were out in the water after the sun got over the treetops.  You can see across the river where the grass is very dry under the trees,
Go over there and pretty soon your socks and shoes will be full of grass seeds. Spend a lot of time getting them out.  Pays to stay out where the water had washed all the grass away.

Moss is beginning to grow more in the shallow parts of the river.  Hides the crawdads pretty good.  We could see where some body with kids has been there since we were there  last. They were trying to dam up the ford to make it deeper.  It's about knee deep there. Big trucks wash out their dam every time the cross the ford.  Tuff stuff.  Where we sit in the water, it's sandy and about mid calf.  Real nice.  Around 12:30 or so the sun is getting too hot to sit out in it even if you are in the water, so we hit the shade. All in all, it was a very nice day.

Love ya'll, Granny
