The heat is killing me! Even as cool as the house stays, it's just been WAY too hot for me to get much of anything done without feeling like I'm going to throw up. I'm too sensitive to heat for these 80+ temps! XD
The Farmer's Market has awesome kettlecorn! We used to live just down the street, so sometimes Jedi and I would get up early on Saturday to go bring the dogs down there and grab some kettlecorn. Yum.
It does seem like there's been less fireweed, and disease has definitely been hitting the area trees hard. I think all but one Alaskan tree species is under attack from fungus, insects, or both. It's been causing deforestation on a pretty shocking scale, and I think it's just finally made its way to our area and that's why we're noticing it. Luckily, it hasn't hit the trees on our property yet, but the bugs sure did a number on some of the younger saplings. :-/ I love trees so this has been hugely depressing for me.
Also, interesting about the "walla-walla" thing! XD I'll have to play closer attention to extras' lips next time I see some background "conversation" going on in a movie.
