Mendel.  Well, he had never experienced such heat in all his 6 months.  He was sure to melt.
So, I did what any good Mama would do... I got the pool... and the hose.

Lilly, never one to abandon an important job, still on the look-out for marauding wildlife.

She didn't even stop to smell the Poppies
