A summer of record temperatures and whacky rain patterns was quickly forgotten with today's mild temps. Weeds were pulled, Tomato Art Fest beckoned, a walk into Brentwood for dinner - thank-you, God, for a short summer reprieve! |

| Summertime and the livin' is easy. |
Glad you have some cooler temps...and that you all got some rain. Did you go to the Tomato Fest? Our daughter did, waiting to hear reports.

Really great photos. :)
