Warm but Good

Brain cancer is...

...warm but with four good things today.

Although Gordon C. is correct, 86 degrees is not feeling like a cooling trend, the day was good in at least four ways.

1.  We discovered a new, low-tech heat sensor:

It works like this:  Look at your formerly straight candles.  If they are now curved, you can infer the presence of heat.  Fortunately we found the candles bent this morning.  The worst heat is behind us.

2.  Mousse gave a great assist on the Beowulf bath.  First Mousse helped me trap Beowulf on the couch, and then he was ready to provide any life-saving maneuvers required by said bath:
 

3.  Really great news?  We read an article about a Finnish study that found that regular dry saunas lower men's risk of death.  Quick!  Save yourselves!  Turn off your air conditioners, male friends! (Women, you stay cool.)

4.  Darrell and I have become accustomed to spending most of our time together.  Today Ginger and I enjoyed our annual summer-camp-celebratory lunch at Summit House:

(By the way, yes, that is a birthday treat.  Just because.  How sweet of our server!)

When I got home, Darrell said I had been gone a "horribly long time!"  I checked his math.  He was right. Ginger and I met at 11:30, before the lunch crowd.  When we left at 2:30, the dining room looked like this:

Apparently Darrell was wrong the other day; telling time is his strong suit. It was a horribly long time!

We hope your day beat our day's good things count, Team D. Hugs!
