CSS Challenge - Week 8

Forgive my tardiness with this week's challenge.  I was up late over the weekend playing D&D, and then this morning, the awful news...  Our external hard drive, Ramen Noodle Drive (our kid named it), died.  Taking with it all of our artworks, projects and family photos over the past 5 or so years.  It was the back up for our computer and therefore had everything on it.  We neglected to put everything back onto the PC when we back everything up, out of laziness and stupidity.  We had an external die on us before, but had salvaged our saves in time.  But this time, we had nowhere to put anything when we saw its time was coming to an end.  And no way to get a new one.  *sigh*  So this might be brief in it's inspiration and not as well written as normally.  I had skipped the #Askababe article on Friday, which I already felt guilty about.  Please include CSS questions in the comments if you have any!

Challenge : Midsummer

suggested by poserfan 

The hottest days of the year and the longest hours of daylight.  The middle of summer is here.  Are you drenched in sweat and wrapped in humidity and mosquitoes?  Indiana summers are just like that.  How do you spend these lazy days of summer, beating the heat, drinking lemonade and lying in a hammock in the shade?

Tour de France - Finale - (July 26)

suggested byjournalcss

Bicycling and France!  Design a journal to fit that theme, wheels, helmets and beautiful French countrysides.  It doesn't have to be about the Tour de France per se.  But inspired.

Thanks for reading, for the above reasons, I am being lazy and not adding the tip for the day.  Maybe next article I'll do a double tip.  You are welcomed to comment your own tips, any I use will be accredited. 

#CSSChallenge continues!
