July in our region is hot. As in, stay-inside-try-to-avoid-the-humidity hot. I've been taking R and Wilbur for walks nearly every morning and even at 5:30 or 6am I get back to the house sweaty and gross. Still, this summer has been relatively mild compared to previous ones. Mild enough that I've been able to continue running during my lunch hour (nearly the hottest time of the day).
The girls had a blast in July.
Their cousins from Texas came to visit! We had a blast visiting various places in Nashville.

Of course, the girls were sad when they had to go back home.
Poppy came to visit, too. We took him to the Farmer's Market for a bike race and fountains and I think the activity was too much for him.
We also pulled the first honey off of our hives! We got nearly five gallons off of two supers.
The garden is producing tomatoes, corn, and beans, but not much of any of these things due to our lack of ability to get out there and weed it all. A is planning a nice winter garden, though, so perhaps we'll make up for it then!
