Hello, I Must Be Going

The heat was not too bad today, and the house is cooling nicely in the evening air. The pollen was less intense than I'd expected, too, and I didn't do much sneezing today, but the pine trees haven't begun their spewing yet, so there is worse ahead. I'm hearing more crickets but fewer frogs tonight. With the arrival of dry weather the frogs probably won't last long, but the crickets should continue to grow in numbers. Well, at least as long as the feral cats don't eat them.

My neck has begun giving me a headache, and looking at the monitor makes it worse. I'm going to go out and rest my eyes in the cool darkness and listen to the night sounds.
