Window Thinking

Record Setting Weather. Again.

July 31, 2014 by Jennifer

With 3.23 inches of rain this past month we made #10 in the list of Anchorage’s top 10 wettest Julys on record. (Average = 1.83 inches)

We ate soup for dinner Monday night. It wasn’t our first soup dinner this month. David talked about how cold it was working out in the field as it poured down rain Monday afternoon. But then yesterday gave us bluebird skies and 70 degrees. I took a walk  along the coastal trail in the morning and the boys and I went to a city park/lake with friends in the afternoon. Such a lovely day.
