Greetings and welcome!
We have had a little cooler week this week, but that is coming to an end. The cool nights have brought heavy dew overnight and in the mornings. I was outside very late.early a few nights ago and the tree leaves looked strange in the flashlight beam. My guess was that they were absorbing the dew.
The fog this morning was indicative of the change to come. As warm moist air overran our cool night the fog formed. It was pretty in the trees but not much fun to drive in.
We have a nice hot weekend coming up. The TV says that we could see 90 Saturday and 87 Sunday. It is August, right?
Something else that the TV said caught my eye. We lose over an hour of daylight in August. Sunrise/sunset times for the 1st and 31st of the month are 5:36-8:20 to 6:13-7:32. Sunrise is 37 minutes later and sunset is 48 minutes earlier. That is 85 minutes a day of less sunlight. Wow. That will certainly cut into a guy’s after work outside hours.
This weekend we have a couple of events that I know of. The big one is the Lakes Country arts festival in Lakewood. They have over 200 vendors and artists. Here is a link. There is also a folk music and art festival in Wabeno, the WAM fest. The Schoolhouse Bar in Mountain is also having their big corn roast this weekend.
Summer is moving right along and there isn’t much left. Enjoy your summer weekends while you can.
Have a great weekend and thank you for visiting!
