Summer - at last

While the rest of the country has been wallowing in extreme heat and high humidity it has been cool and cloudy in Seattle.  Overcast most days with highs only in the upper-60's or low-70's. 

According to a local weatherperson, up until yesterday we had only had 78 minutes of summer.  Summer was described as a temperature of 80 degreees or higher.  So, an hour and 18  minutes of summer.  

Friday afternoon and Saturday were gorgeous.  Not summer by the definition above, but the sun was out.  Not a cloud in the sky and it was in the mid-70's.  I think the sun helps make it feel like summer even if it's not 80 degrees.

Snoozing in an un-made bed.  I'll get right on that... not.
