It's Not a Dry Heat

12:45 pm, Sunday, 83 degrees and 48% humidity. Muggy. Certainly nowhere near as humid as other parts of the country, but unusual for here. A weak weather front is skimming the Coast and Willamette Valley, and clouds are visible to the west of Hood River, but no rain is expected here today or tomorrow. Calm earlier this morning but west wind is just now starting up. And next week... summer returns.

The garden corn (Bon Appettit Tablesweet variety
) is doing great this year. The silks have emerged in the past week and have these really cool burgundy and yellow colors:

In a couple of weeks, fresh corn on the cob roasted on the grill.... yum
