We're really missing the June gloom of San Diego. It would be an understatement to say it's been hot around here. Yesterday it got up to 109! No joke. Thankfully, it's not a humid heat and you can run from your air conditioned house to your air conditioned car to the air conditioned wherever without being totally zapped by the humidity as was the case in Houston. But, man, it's too dang hot! And it's only June, for crying out loud! What is the rest of the summer going to be like?
Listening to the music at the weekly Farmer's Market. The best seat in the house: Daddy.
That day at the Farmer's Market, we met two mini-dachshund puppies. Of course I had to take pictures!
One and two and three...Jazz hands!

This year, Father's Day happened to land on our 6 year wedding anniversary so we had much to celebrate that day! Seeking refuge from the intense heat outside, we had a late lunch at the Cheesecake factory and then we went to the air conditioned mall.
The local radio station here began their annual outdoor movie series. We loved "Film in the Fog" in San Francisco so decided to check out the Austin equivalent. Well, lemme tell ya, we would've welcomed some fog that night--it was sooooo hot! I think it got up to 105! The temp didn't drop much after the sun went down, either. It remained miserably hot all evening. Izzy was a trooper, though, and enjoyed showing off her dance moves to the captive audience of people sitting around us. If this crazy heat wave continues, we will not be attending the rest of the movie series!
Waiting for it to get dark enough for the movie.
At least we were not among those who were drenched by the sprinklers turning on at the end of the movie. On second thought, perhaps we would have welcomed a spontaneous run thru the sprinklers...?
