The world record for kayaking over a waterfall has been shattered -- 186 feet. Picture dropping the equivalent of a multi-floor building...fast.
It's not the Sears Tower, but hey, I'm impressed. Nobody kayaks down the Sears Tower!
Overcast the last few days... an incredible blessing. We even got a bunch of rain. I've had a big batch of quilts to appraise, and it is much easier doing it in cool weather. Husband even went and got a jacket for supper last night while we were eating out on the terrace; we were drinking hot tea and he said, "I think this is a sign of fall coming." Don't know about that -- we have such dog days in August -- but I'm willing to hope.
The zucchini plants in the pots on the terrace are huge, with little fruits the size of my little finger -- and growing fast.
