It's Hotter than Vinyl Underwear

No I don't have a photo of vinyl underwear. This is a bit silly (ahem), but I put a bunch of snow and ice photos I have collected over the years and set them to excerpts of the song "Christmas in July" by the Therapy Sisters. I think it is kind of funny..........the song is better than the photos.

I was reminded of this blog post I just made by CC, who is spending time out by the pool. Me too! (except sometimes even that is too hot).

Again, kind of silly, but I had not posted to my blog in a month because except for swimming I won't go outside except when absolutely necessary, so no photography right now.

In case any of you need some "therapy" from all the heat..................

I feel that it is less hillbilly than it is blues--but sort of a combination. They just don't have the sound of blues singers. It is like hillbilly singers singing in a blues format! I can't believe I found the song the way I did. Every other "Christmas in July" song was BAD.

The only respite we have had from the heat is some wind the other night. For that our power went out for four hours. I need all the snow and ice photos here that people can post!!

And, thankfully, this looks very cold.

Two of my slideshow photos are from a snow in March. You can tell because the fruit trees are blooming.

Gotta love those mountain springs. That is a really cool looking waterfall, or rapids, or waterfall/rapids combo.

Amazingly, here at the river, it is only supposed to be 96 degrees as a high today. Cool spell!
