Another hot and humid day. We again hit 90F. Spent most of my time inside, enjoying the coolness of central air conditioning. I did get out for a short country road drive this morning, and with front windows down and the sunroof open, I could hear Crickets in the ditches and Cicadas in the trees as I slowly ambled my way along the dusty, gravel road. Another hot day tomorrow..........Saturday night, Woodsy and I took a drive into and around Bayfield, and then headed off out into the countryside to a high spot on Tower Hill Road to watch the full Moon rise at 9:08 p.m. And, it was on time too. SATURDAY NIGHT'S STURGEON MOON TAKEN THROUGH A HAZY CLOUD COVER...THE MOON APPEARED A CHEESY, BURNT ORANGE IN THE HEAVY ATMOSPHERE, BUT I SHOW IT HERE IN BLACK AND WHITE FOR CLARITY
