Are you like me? Are you pretty much done with summer? Sure the BBQ's have been great, fishing has been fun, and who doesn't enjoy baseball, but enough already with the oppressive heat. Walking across my front yard sounds like 10 bowls of Rice Krispies crackling in chorus. The elaborate wallows in the backyard next to the house foundation that the dogs have established would make even the most fastidious of pigs jealous. Any chore performed outside has become an experiment in hydration, and let me just say this, those Gatorade folks are full of shit man. Yes, I have lost track of how many triple digit days (the above forecast is for today) we have endured so far this summer here in SW Missouri, and quite frankly I do not want to know, I just want summer to go away... NOW!
I flushed about 2 dozen doves on my way to work this morning that were picking in the dry grass in front of my office building. Two of them nearly got splattered across my windshield, but of course they were able to make evasive maneuvers, as doves are renowned for, and escape death. All in due my time my pretties. It's officially 29 days until the dove opener and with it, the start of the fall hunting season.
It can't get here soon enough for me.
