It rained last night and the temperature cooled down in a most blessed manner. I could have cried with relief, truly. Today was nice as well, in the mid 70's with rain in the early afternoon. I'd be happy if it were like this all summer.
I think we might have a new kitten. I came out on the porch this afternoon to find a sweet little orange tabby guy curled up on the rocking chair. Gave him some food and water, he was ravenous. Discussed keeping him with Brian--we have a cat already, so we'd have to quarantine him until we take him to the vet. But now that we've decided to take him in, he's off roaming. I've got more food and water on the porch, hoping he'll return. The girls have already named him Louie. We have so very many stray cats in this neighborhood. I think someone feeds them, because they all look pretty content, but it's the same ones all the time, with a new one every so often.
The honeysuckle along the side fence is in bloom and it smells heavenly. You can smell it all the way into the front yard. I transplanted some, but it's probably going to be a few years before it's high enough to twine around the porch pillar.
