Charming expressions that conveyed the sweltering heat of July. Time flies by while you're having fun, so it's terrible to see that another month has gone by.

thanks for your kind comments, Sotto. I know what you mean...hard to believe that July is all but gone. I'm tired of the heat, though, but don't look forward to winter's extreme cold either....a Texan at heart. enjoy your evening, Sara

Dear Sara, Wonderful words that spoke to how hot July has been. I am sad to see the month is over, only because time passes so quickly. Pennsylvania has experienced many brutal hot days, and yes, the wonderful cool weather will be coming soon. Summer Blessings, Dear Sara, Daniel
