It has been so hot here in the Central Valley of California. The little tree in front of our house cracked right in two. It’s the tree the Chipmunks in our latest Time Brats movie perched up on. (Boy, am I glad it didn’t crack while the kids were up on it!)

Speaking of trees, here’s my daughter hugging a tree for Team Yupapotamus Ranch Capture California Adventure #36: Hug a Tree.

Go on, hug a tree and say, it’s all right, tree. I love you!
