August heralds the dog days of summer.
Altho from the looks of things, those dog days have settled a bit early on the South. I can't imagine smokers are enjoying any pleasure in the deep south broiler.
Still busy but smokeless. I went to cut the front lawn the other day and found that hornets made a moderate basketball nest in the tree out near the sidewalk, chin level. I got the hint they didn't want me mowing around them. They set up home in a busy place too with kids and dogwalkers. Can't leave them there to chance. Two cans of bee kill and I think their numbers are dwindling. They have plenty of soldiers in reserve however and I'll be buying another can tonite.
Other than that, no complaints. The kids are throught with their summer camps and now it's the slow grind until school starts in 3 weeks.
