T Stands For Bring Back Summer

I want to thank everyone who left kind and encouraging messages while I was sick.  You are all too kind.  I owe several of you e-mails, too, but that will have to wait until we have T this week.  I'm moving, but really slowly.  I also get tired quickly, so it may take till late tomorrow to visit everyone.

When I saw I hadn't shared this post, I knew CJ would be happy to see the heat.

Yes, it was incredibly hot, that day.   Sally and I were on our way to Valley Center (a small town a few miles north of Wichita) when I saw a sign that chimineas were on clearance. 

I felt I might need a new one because mine was showing signs of cracking.

Of course, I saw the sign as we were whizzing by the site.

Sally was a real trooper, though and turned around so we I could explore the sale.   I'd hate to have to bring all those things that were on their porch in at night.

I never did get a shot of the chimineas, because, even on clearance they were outside my price range.  For the sizes they had, the cheapest was well over $100.00 (USD).  I could buy one in Wichita for less than that even if it wasn't on sale.

Inside was cool and comfortable, even if I couldn't remember the name of the store.

While I took a couple of photos, Sally purchased a bird feeder that was supposed to keep squirrels away.  She paid a lot for it and it broke the first time a squirrel jumped on it.  I suggested we return it, but Sally didn't want the confrontation.

However, after we left the store with the soon-to-be defunct bird feeder, we reached our destination, which was Big Larry's Burgers.

While I decided what I wanted, I took a photo of the menu.  Glad I did, because as it urns out, I didn't show our waters we got.

Sally got a double hamburger and I got a black bean burger.  We really both DID get water, but there is no evidence of it in the photo.

Now it's your turn.  I'm sure by now you know the "rules," but in case you don't, please show something drink related. It can be photos, a place you visited, movies, tea cups, coffee mugs, tea or coffee service, postcards, books, magazines, sketches, mixed media, drawings, paintings, tags, ATCs, scrapbooking, or other art that is digital, hybrid, or traditional, as long as it in some way relates back to a drink, any drink.  Please share below and Bleubeard and I, along with the rest of the T gang will be by to visit.   Please link only your T post and not your blog in general.  Old photos are acceptable because they may be taken any time, not just on Tuesday, and not just this year. And I promise to visit everyone this time and I will TRY to catch up, too.
