Plug in the Fan

It's another scorcher today in Hooterville. The forecast doesn't look as withering as the last couple of days, with temperatures on due to reach 30. That 86 for you folks playing the notes of the Fahrenheit scale. Yesterday it reached 93 degrees by that reckoning. Its like Texas, without the hurricanes of course.

Now this may not seem hot to some of you situated in various places between the Atlantic and the Pacific. It is quite uncomfortable here when everyone is adapted to cold and damp. The other disadvantage is that there is no air conditioning -- not in the house or the car or anywhere else.

Speaking of hurricanes, and seeing your hometown mentioned in the news...hope and prayers that your family is fine despite the heavy winds and rains down their way.

Yes, the eye of the storm passed directly over my folks. Other than a partially blown down fence. a few shingles missing, and scattered tree limbs in the back garden, they came out unscathed. They got very little rain.
