Two dollar day?

Good evening! is it hot where you live? it was 107 degrees here today! that's just CRAZY hot! lol DH & i fought the bees for the pool today! they kept wanting to take a drink (one at a time, thankfully!) and we kept splashing them away, they can have it when i leave!! lol
Well, the roadrunner came back, last night and brought at least two friends!! i saw THREE this time and i don't believe they travel in any kind of flock, like the quail do, so that was REALLY special! i only got this one pic though.

it was really a weird sky this morning but cleared up to be quite nice actually, in spite of the heat! But check out this HUGE cloud!

The sun stayed hidden til about 9 am and then it cleared up and got just plain HOT! lol This flower caught my eye at the swapmeet this morning. No idea what it is but it reminded me of orchids but this plant is a tree!! (shrugs shoulders)

PURSES!
MORE PURSES!

Hee hee hee hee hee!

I think you are going to open a purse boutique!!!

I love your bargains! That milliflore pendant is just stunning. And those hearts look like gemstones.

107 is just too hot. We only got to 104.

I think you can play a bowling game with those tiny rabbits in the bigger rabbit. You just need a ball to roll at them!

Oops I'm getting crazy, forgot to mention that I have *never* heard of roadrunners going around in a bunch like that! I have to wonder if it was a mom and dad rr with the baby that has grown up? I saw a "baby" dove begging for food from its mom today and the baby was as BIG as the mom!!! I am putting a lot of food and water out for them when it's so hot!!!

You ladies are really suffering in the heat. The weather has been strange in Nor. CA this summer and weird clouds and low temps and such. Odd.

I loved that horse sculpture! Would have snapped it up ASAP!

Stay cool and dont get stung :)
