On a brighter note we have the crickets just starting the nightly chirping so cheerful to hear.
Did you know there is a formula from cricket chirps to estimate the current outside temperature.
The frequency of chirping varies according to temperature. To get a rough estimate of the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, count the number of chirps in 15 seconds and then add 37. The number you get will be an approximation of the outside temperature.
I’m so busy... “I don’t know if I found a rope or lost a horse.”
