It's that hot here, that's for sure!<br /><br />Our French patients were in today--I had seen your post this morning and mentioned about the sunflowers, and 'Martine' who is from around Toulouse told me about how as a child she played among the sunflowers and that she felt like she was disappearing in a maze of yellow. I don't think you need to be a child to feel that, they are just to beautiful!~Kim at Golden Pines~https://www.blogger.com/profile/02001523468339091407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828307270320034323.post-28649496984180284112012-07-17T02:57:49.255+02:002012-07-17T02:57:49.255+02:00It's so hot, Mitt Romney seems cool.

Still waiting to hear where I can get the world's best pancakes and I quite agree with your comments regarding Interstate 95 in Maine. I drove several miles of it yesterday while returning home from a quick jaunt up the coast, and I have but one word to describe it...UGH!

Today is cool, cloudy and misty, but hey ho, more 100+ temps on the way.
