"Four Night Time Jewels..."

...making a sparkly encore appearance here this last

Cactus Monday

of the 2010 summer season...

as my Illinois based thoughts begin to fantasize

about soon returning back home

to Arizona.

What a wonderful time we have had!

But...

where in the world have the last 6 weeks gone???!!!

Have a happy day all!

"Night Blooming Cereus..."

...One of my all time favorite cactus loves!!!

This card now resides with Cheryl

in the state of Utah!

Happy Cactus Monday all...

Be sure to enjoy one of your favorite loves this day! :)

"HOT, HOT...HOT...!!!

115 Fahrenheit...(46.1 Celsius)

yesterday...Whew!

...Much the same is predicted for today.
Things are not much better at night either...
Modern urban heat islands
don't let nights cool down enough...heat radiates all night long!
Sizzle! Sizzle! Ouch!
Hope your Cactus Monday is an icy cool one!
(FYI...This ATC is taken...but other available ones are posted HERE.)

Can't a forget a special
Happy Birthday "shout out" here for my brother MARK
and my sister SUSAN...both born on this day
just two years apart!
Have a great day you two!
