HUMID

SUNDAY

I got up with Lil Bit at 2AM as he was overheated. I set up a couple fans in the bedroom to get it cooler for him. Finally realizing that the down comforter was soaking up his heat & he could not get cool, I got a quilted blanket and put it down instead. He settled down immediately.

We slept late and got up around 8:15. The dogs were overeager to see us get up. Ben kept nosing us, Maggie kept coming in our bedroom and forcing hubby to pet her.

I started making breakfast and had assumed the kids already left because they wanted to be gone by 5AM to get a good campground site at Glacier National Park; however, they were still in the house and came up to talk to us.

They packed all their stuff up and KRN talked to us about getting drunk & having fun at the Scavenger Hunt at Iron Horse Saloon last night. Lots of their friends from high school turned out.

The kids left around 9AM. Then hubby had his breakfast while the dogs got their eggs & pills. We finally went for a dog walk in Farragut Park around 10:00. It was already getting humid & hot out. We found that it had rained at the park. Very muggy. We walked the dogs thru the Shooting Range trail. Maggie went off-leash at the beginning and Buddy went off leash on the way back. However, we had to put Bud back on leash because he ran off into the woods. Also saw some horseback riders.

Got back to the Excursion and gave them water. We drove to Garfield Bay to get our cantaloupe that we had left on the boat. Forgot the keys because I had not taken my purse, so hubby had to walk around the side of the security gate. Nobody was down at the dock!

Then we drove back to Sagle and stopped at the Fruit & Vegetable Stand. Hubby got more cherries, watermelon & potatoes.

We then drove back home and just relaxed in the Air Conditioning all day. Hubby was on the computer and watched TV; I took a nap with Maggie from about 5PM to 6PM.

Matt called to let us know they got to Glacier safely and had secured a campground.

Watched a movie- Safe House, on free Showtime.

There were over 12 deer that came and ate food & drank water here tonight.

Drove Matt's truck down to the big storage shop around 9:00 and then walked back.

Tried to look for the Perseid meteor shower. but there was lightning outside and we could not see any meteors. Saw lots of stars, tho.
