Temperature drops! At last!

Only in the Pacific NW? On Wednesday the 29th Seattle recorded its hottest day ever - 103 degrees.

One week later, August 5, it was 40 degrees cooler, and cloudy - but by evening the sky had cleared enough for a clear view of the full moon.

Today it was gray and cool, and I didn't hear a single complaint.

It's a good time to read. Last night I stayed up far too late, finishing another Dan Fesperman novel - The Arms Maker of Berlin. Germany, WWII, spies, counter-spies, Cold War machinations, fallout from German reunification - it's a great read.

(But I really should have turned out the light before 2 a.m.!)
