We have entered the sticky hot phase of the summer. Ceiling fans are going full tilt, the windows open and the sounds from the street trickling in.

Thank goodness for window screens or it would be bug city.

If aliens from another solar system were on an Earth safari, the best time to view us humans would be early morning before 9am and then after 4pm when we venture back out into the wild as the day cools down.

I love this time of year, as the days start to get shorter and autumn is waiting in the wings.
