The ocean is up to 68 degrees.  Afternoon temperatures are in the 90’s and we’re melting in the office and the gardens are drooping…but when you walk around the park everyone looks happy, relaxed and ready to chat about what they saw while they were kayaking.   Oh, and this afternoon Campah the cat tried to climb into the refrigerator.
