The thermometer hit 99 in Chestertown yesterday, but the kids didn’t seem to mind.

Neither did the eggplants.

I, however, can’t stand the heat. It makes me tired and sad. But, my trials will soon end. We leave for Alaska on Tuesday. Which means on Wednesday, I’ll be in the blissful land of cold, wet, and windy.

And I’ll look a little something like this.

I know it’s probably hard, but please try not to swoon.
