I don't know if people in other parts of the world feel whiplashed by changing seasons, but I do here. Despite the summery light lately the weather hasn't been particularly warm—at least not with any consistency. The warm-weather potted plants aren't living outside yet, let's just say. But today we we catapulted directly into some hot weather. So of course, there was just one thing to do!

Well actually we did a great deal of other things too, many of them involving whining, arguing, and discipline, but running in the sprinkler was a nice interlude. And now the fans are doing noble duty cooling down the bedrooms, and there might me a moment in the next several hours when all five of us are asleep!
