It hit 134.7 inside the house yesterday, but we weren't around to see it. Ever see cactus' die from too much heat?

We took the dogs and headed up past Skykomish yesterday to play in the river and cool down. The VERY old cocker spaniel, who doesn't like water one bit, hit the creek and just stood in the coolness and wouldn't come out. Of course the lab and golden just went crazy.

On a sad note, someone drowned very near where we were hanging out. S&R had everyone in the river. I guess a small child also went missing in the Sky somewhere down by Sultan as well. That snow melt is no joke and I wish more people understood that.

I'm glad it's starting to "cool" down a bit. This episode was just too much...
