So far this year, we have now had 28 days of 100 or over temps, and no rain or end in sight. It is just brutal!!! Come on Winter! I am just as sick of the heat as I am the $400 elec. bill. And we keep the house at 74 due to the lg dbl coated Malamutes. You vacumn and sweat as if you had been jogging. Yup, Come on Winter. I can always put on more clothes to stay warm.
