Goodbye July: A Month to Forget

Don’t let the door hit you…

Damn, July was a beastly month. Dry as a bone. The river level dropped down to August level.

The rock in the river, which typically doesn’t show until August was visible for most of July.

A cormorant standing on a rock in a river with green water.

And hot!! I can’t imagine Hades being hotter than some of the days in July.

Beastly hot.

A woman in a purple dress lying on sandy terrain, with a relaxed pose and long hair cascading around her.
I wish I looked this good. Sigh.

So, goodbye to July. (In case you haven’t noticed, that rhymes.)

Here is my little ode to a month from H – E – double hockey sticks.

Goodbye July
I'd like to say I'll miss you
But that would be a lie

Goodbye July
You pushed me past the brink
And drove me to indulge in alcoholic drinks

Goodbye July
It's been a blast
I'm thrilled to see that you are no in my past

Goodbye July
May you fade from my brain
And hopefully August will bring lots of rain

So there you have it. July sucked.

Wild fires, earthquakes, and all manner of discontent in the world. And here in my little corner of the Concord River I suffered through sweltering humidity that would have challenged a tropical rain forest, but without the rain.

Goodbye July

August, please be kind.

Blessed be :}

Mi manchi profondamente, mio ​​amato immortale.

Wondering, searching, and wandering, I'm an earth witch with a desire to get it right in my lifetime. The flow of the river feeds my inner goddess and fuels my soul. Blessed be. :}
