Cooler days ahead...I hope

Yet another picture from our parade on the 4th of July.

I finished Catching Fire last night. Spoiler alert coming.  The ending was not as I expected.  In the 75th Hunger Games former champions are contestants.  But here the rebels are in charge of the games, not the Capitol.  The game ends suddenly with five left to go.  One is our hero Katniss.  She is injured and is taken by the rebels.  Three are taken by the Capitol, including her faux boyfriend, Peeta.  I am now reading Mockingjay, the last book in this series.  Her District 12 was fire bombed out of existence.  She goes back there to see what was left. 

I assume Mockingjay is about her effort to find Peeta.  Her real boyfriend is Gale.  But she was suppose to marry Peeta. 

Enough on these two books.  I don't want to spoil the endings for  you anymore.

It has been very hot here the past few days. But now the ocean breezes are coming here and the temperature is coming down.
