Heatwave!!!

Yep - that picture is right - 115 degrees in the shade outside today!
This is the third day in a row that the temperatures here are over 100 degrees! Here in western Washington this is not normal. In fact, I don't remember it ever being this hot! Needless to say, we've been hibernating inside with air conditioning. Keeping the dogs out of it is another challenge. Little Mouse the dachshund mix loves the heat, but doesnt realize how dangerous it can be to her. We let her go out for about 15 minutes at a time, before making come back in. Veggies are loving it, though. Just harvested some zucchini, and the tomatoes are getting close to being ready. Cant wait for a home-grown tomato and onion sandwich!
