Hot, hot, hot

Jensational said it is snowing in Chicago. I haven't seen snow since 2004. We do have plenty of sunshine though. This is today's widget report:


Don't take my word for it, see for yourself.

Plenty of trees provide shade for the deer

The trees seem to provide shelter for another animal

Hello Kitty.

Although it wasn't as hot, it was just as sunny last Friday and my co-workers and I took the opportunity to fly kites. Of course, just as we were ready to get back to work, I lost my grip on the string and off it went. I asked the groundskeepers (they were watching and laughing at us, well, me running) if they had a tool long enough to take it down. They said they might and if they got it, they'd leave it at the business office. Sadly, they weren't able to get it down and now HK will forever remain grounded. Pretty sad. It was a cute kite.
