The heat basically fricasseed my lotus in their manure.   :(  Hope they will be ok.  Filled water every night in the heat!

Got all the way up to around 74 today, but then again, I should be glad that it's not snowing. {nono} lol
No string algea issues here. When I do get some, the fish chow it down.

Didn't know that you were getting such hot temps!
We were above average but luckily temps are normal for a change.

Take care of yourselves and keep cool.

Cooling down as of today.  Only about 85* high today!  @O@  Still more warm than I like but the fishies like to eat and they need their water filled  :P

Steve, can you say "I'm going over to the beach to cool down" in your 74* heat?  ;D :D ;D  I'm jealous of your hostas if that makes a difference.  :P

Wow, we're a couple hours away from each other yet I'm getting drowned in String algae. We're hauling it out by the bucketful and dumping it on the weeds. Definitely glad it's not snowing!  :) We prefer string algae to snow ANY day.  ;)

Any day for sure...  o(:-) Love it.  :)

I noticed it has come around today as well.  I didn't realize it was from the heat!  Glad it has cooled down.
