So, what did you do for your Earth Today? Sit on it? Start to think about doing something for the good of the Earth. We do have to live here, there are no other options!

Zinnia Flower Garden by: brendasue
These Zinnias were planted from seed last spring. For flowers that love the Hot Texas Heat In August, The Zinnia has to be at the top of the short list.
Colorful Flowers by: brendasue
As you can see, these flowers are standing up in 100 degree heat (and I'm not!)
*Photography Tip: Plan your photoshoots very carefully if you have this type of heat. It is not good for you or the digital cameras for long exposure to this temperature. Protect the cameras and freeze some bottles of water in advance for you.
