I love and hate summer. I love the growing things, the intense green, the long long evenings, all the wildlife going about its business at top speed, the summer migrant birds that nest here, the seasons of the dragonflies, the color of the sky just after sunset on a clear day when Venus is the evening star, the shapes of thunderheads.
Extremely hot weather makes me ill if I am not careful; and I don't like humidity. My hair and skin love it, but I don't find it at all comfortable. I have ongoing issues with hydration and fluid retention that hot summer weather makes worse.
There are days that make the bad parts worth it. Mostly they come in June and sometimes in August, but we are about to have a run of them next week, after a horrendous spell of miserable heat, damp, and threatening storms.
