Five years ago, I was living in Fort Worth, Texas. Summers in Texas are brutal. Possibly on our morning walk, I took this picture, which I titled, "It's Hot."
At some point that day, a ruckus in the backyard (ie, my dog Pauline barking like crazy) alerted me & caused me to come take a look. I found a possum which I thought might be dead but also, it might be - that thing they do - when they pretend they're dead - I know we call it "playing possum" but I forget what they call it. Anyway, here's one of them completely fooling Pauline:
Yes, I checked later - it was gone.
Finally, on this very hot day - according to the internets, the high was 99 degrees that day - but weather in Texas was quite volatile - I took this picture from our front window as the sun fell.
It's lucky to have these pictures. August 6, 2017, was a Sunday & I have no real memories about that day. These remind me of something at the very least.
