What a great picture! Thanks.
I was reading the news elsewhere, and I thought, I need a dose of BoB. It worked.
Never really adhered to the “First day of [season]” at the equinoxes and solstices. As a kid, Summer began when school let out, and ended when school began, but those were the good ol’ days when schools gave us June, July, and August off.
And besides, we’ve had summer-like weather since April. ☼
Great picture. The innocence of the happy fisherman, the wildness of the cat. Someone clicked at the perfect moment.

Yep — in the art of photography, timing is everything. And anyone who can look at that picture without smiling really needs to check his/her pulse. 🙂

Fun! Bet the photo two minutes after this was a little different in mood. At least for the proud little fisherman. Incidentally, I love what you’ve done with your wallpaper!

Max 18 in winter? You’re spoiled. We’ve been having max 18 here in the UK, and it’s summer!

I’m not a fan of hot weather, so 64 degrees Fahrenheit sounds heavenly to me. 🙂

I’m shivering and feeling like death, I once lived in the Great Sandy Desert of Western Australia. The nearest to heaven on earth

I’m sorry to hear that. 😦 I’ve spent most of my life in a part of the world that has a reputation (mostly deserved) for long, cold winters, but luckily for me, cold weather doesn’t bother me at all. I can handle almost any kind of weather, except for the hot humid kind.

I hope you’re just sorry to hear I’m cold but not that I once lived in a desert. I loved the desert for there I was KING 😈 :bear;
It’s not humid in the desert, just very hot and very dry.
