“Tempeste. What are you doing?”
“I’m checking out the outside.”
“Why are you doing that. You know it’s 100 degrees out there.”
“I kn0w but I’m thinking of asking Dad to get the pool out.”
“You know it is still too hot even for the pool.”
“I suppose you are right. Why aren’t you playing with your toys?”
“Oh, I don’t know. I’m in a lazy mood, I suppose.”
“What about your precious marshmallow?”
“I think she needs a rest for a while.”
“I know how that can be.”
“So what’s next? You know Dad wants us to make an announcement.”
“Yeah, I know. Can we just take a nap first?”
“No, I think we should get on with it.”
“Why doesn’t Dad make his own announcements?”
“I think he counts on us, since we have more readers than he does.”
“That does make sense. Okay, let’s get it done.”
“I’ll take the first part. Dad is taking a blogging break for a week.”
“He will be back next Thursday with us again.”
“Our sister is visiting from Indiana. We are so excited.”
“He wants to make sure her visit is enjoyable.”
“So off the grid he goes and will not be visiting blogs”
“Adiós, Papa.”

Dear Girls,
Thanks for the info. How nice you’ll have company. It is too bad though that you can’t sit by the pool in your French bikinis along with Dad in his famous Speedo. Maybe it’s just as well since, it might just be a little too much for your Aunt. See ya next week.
Susannah 🙂

It is certainly hot. Our tomato plants aren’t growing any tomatoes because of the heat. Appearantly 90+ degrees is too much for tomato plants to be fruitful and we are having 100+ degrees every day. Anyway, I just love how they are owning the sofa and that you have stairs for them.
