A temporary place of worship -- they plan to have their new church building in place
in two years. (see story below...)

6:pm -- 106 degrees F (41.4 degrees C)

We were over 100 degrees for 24 days before the high pressure area that had been directly overhead moved off to the north west just a little. That gave us a tiny bit of rain one night (with lots of high wind and lightening and a bit of cooler weather. Of course, that coolness is long gone.

People on the east coast are getting tons of rain and are expecting the hurricane to visit. I would take some of the rain off their hands if that were possible.

Sweetie returned last night -- he had been in Mississippi for a week with a group of men from our church (as well as from some surrounding towns) helping a small church make a place to worship out of two large storage buildings. Their church was totally destroyed by one of the April tornados. This particular church was featured on page 95 of the August issue of Southern Living.
