Hot summer of 2011

Yes, still sweltering here.
In fact, I am writing to you on the fly, ahead of an ugly orange and red radar mass approaching from the west. When you live in the suburbs, you just never know when the power may decide to play hide and seek during a thunderstorm.

Stay cool!
(I mean that literally, rather than figuratively à la the 1970s.
In case you were around then.)


as you see, my granddaughter has the best idea:
dress light
drink lots of water
stay out of the sun when ever possible
have fun!
