Today was the 53d day of triple digit heat.  Even for Texas this is hot.

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

I remember 1980, 54 days in a row here in DFW, at midnight it would still be above 90, damn it was hot. A/C didn't even think about keeping up. Transformers popping like popcorn.

 73 and light rain. Cools down to 50 at night for good sleeping. We did  have a few days in the 90's but the humidity was down in the teens.  God I love Montana. By the way, I can still see "SNOW" in the mountains out of my window. ;D

It got up to 75 today and will get down to 55 overnight. I think that's almost 20 degreees cooler than normal. No global warming here.

Just a big hello, from the swamp....

Low 90's everyday, humidity is "same as it ever was" breeze feels like a hair dryer, pop up t-storms between 1:00 and 6:00.

Lows around 80.

Can't wait until Nov. Than the windows are open until May....

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Tell me how much fun it is Febuary tough guy. ;D It will still average 80 degrees here in the swamp. 70 at night,80 in the day and I don't have to worry about DIEING if I step out into my back yard in the middle of winter (though the damn pythons are a PITA). Just sayin'. ;)
