Dust!


April has finally started living up to its reputation:  hot and dusty.  This weekend the winds blew in which caused the dust to fly.  My floors and furniture were covered in dust!  I swept my floors three times in the space of a few hours and tried to wipe the dust off of my furniture.  I was fighting a losing battle!  It was so dusty that you couldn't even see the shape of the sun in the sky.  Not only was the dust bad but it was also very hot.  I checked the temperature in Fatick at 1:30 am on Sunday and it was 95 degrees.  The high during the day was over 108 degrees!  At least my house stays fairly cool as long as I keep the fans blowing.   These two pictures illustrate what it is like when the dust is blowing.
