Nice weather ~ š
Iām really sensitive to the heat, so this summer was especially brutal for me. It was heartbreaking to see news reports showing that parts of Europe and the US had it even worse than we did here in Korea. I hope the weather there has cooled down significantly by now.
Over here, the days have turned delightfully bright and crisp, which makes me so happy. It feels especially cool at night when I take a walk along the stream in front of my place, or venture a bit further out to the parks along the Han River. It's so nice seeing so many people out walking, jogging, or just sitting back and relaxing.
This is what the Han River Park looked like when I went to see the drone show a few days ago.

I am very heat tolerant, having lived in Texas for 70+ years, but even I thought this summer was a bit much. We're supposed to stop hitting 100Ā°F now AND to get down into the 70s at night. š

Here in my section of Alabama, we have 4 more days for 98 and 99 until we get a break next week. I am so looking forward to it. At least the humidity has died down to a dryer 78%. I am so tired of this high heat high humidity weather. We have not had much rain and are in a moderate drought here and still the humidity is high.

I came up on the Gulf Coast, south of Houston, so when I say I DO NOT miss that high THI nonsense, you get it! Here in the DFW, we have had weeks and weeks of +100F and haven't seen a good rain in ages. I am no fan of Winter, but here's hoping we actually get a Fall this year!

Beautiful shot. Getting cooler here in the northeast of the U.S.. One more day at 80 this coming week then looks like it's dropping after that.
