We grilled a weekend's worth of meals on Friday so we could mostly stay inside away from the heat without using the oven this weekend. I did have errands to run, so I drove through River Oaks to see flags flying on the mansions of people who can afford to keep their lawns well-watered during the heat wave. Here are a couple of shots I liked:
Unlike certain cooperative Midwestern dogs, Guinness and Margot didn't want to pose in t-shirts with eagles and patriotic slogans on them. Maybe they're exercising their right to protest holidays that involve the noise of fireworks.
Love the two River Oaks shots.
Margot and Guinness could be the poster children for the sacrifices made for our country. ;) (Margot's levitating abilities are extraordinary!)
I had 2 black dogs in my lap last night when neighbors across the street started setting off an hour's worth of (illegal) fireworks.
