Two beautiful sunrises in a row! Of course, the day was all downhill from there. It was beastly hot, so we had to endure load shedding (the university cycles off parts of the chilled water loop, so that it doesn’t exceed capacity, which means that for most of the afternoon we had no AC at work). O gross!

I couldn’t get anyone at work to get off their asses and look at the sunrise this morning. What the hell is wrong with people?

I went out to Mount Gilead Cemetery today with the new camera. I figured I’d better do a practice run at a nearby cemetery, before going out to a new one. Of course, it’s supposed to get hotter than hell again, so who knows when I’ll get the next chance to go cemeterying?

Opal Arthur, 1903 – 1929, Mother, River Hill Cemetery, Spencer, Owen County, Indiana
I’ve been sloooooowly uploading more photos to Findagrave, and I thought this one was kind of interesting. They’ve made their own do-it-yourself marker, but then embedded the little metal plaque from the funeral home into the concrete. (There are a couple of similar grave markers in this cemetery that belong to other members of the Arthur family.)

Have I complained about the heat? Because it’s rightsomejesus hot here. At 6pm, the actual temperature is 100F with a heat index of 110F. My brain is melting. MELTING, I SAY! Kill me now.
That is all. As you were, comrades.
