Hurrah for short work weeks!

King & Broad St., Charleston, S.C.
This evening's photos are a couple that I grabbed on a recent walk downtown in between rain showers. I looked back at a dark threatening cloud and made it West Ashley just in time. It rained again most of the morning today but I had bright skies for my quick march around the hood just now. You wouldn't think I grew up in the rainiest place in the world, would you? But I did.

Bad news, kids. My air-conditioner is struggling. We never plan ahead for that, do we? It is cooler than outside but not by much. Do you think a stern talking to will make a difference? I've been talking to the thermostat but I may need to go outside and cuss at the unit.

Can't hurt my mood though as we head into a long weekend. Enjoy!

Uggghhh on the AC...hopefully, all it will need is a recharge of refrigerant. Stay cool!

Thank you. I hope so. You start to prepare yourself for the worst news each time something like this happens.

No A/C? How awful. And it always goes out on a holiday or a Friday evening. How does it know? :)

Lovely wrought iron lamp. Eye-catching. I think that a good kick might start the A/C or at least let it know that you are perturbed.

My favorite blog. Always great and classic subjects, Joan. Happy 4th.

Right, eh? It is struggling along. Hopefully it will stay tolerable until tomorrow. Have a good holiday lowandslow!

That fence is so dramatic. No cat burglar is going to climb over that.

SWMBO is terrified we'll have a power outage at the height of the summer heat. So far so good.
