I picked up some nectarines, red plums, apples, pears, and lots of berries and salad stuff. We also went for a walk at the park with the trail through the butterfly gardens. Both time we were there, the real feel temperature was 105/106.  I'm excited to go there in the fall when we can enjoy it more!            *** The weather in my neck of the woods***   HOLY SMOKES IT IS HOTTTTTT!!!!!
