It is so hot and muggy here. But DH is a butt and refuses to put in the air conditioners until we threaten to commit mutiny on him and take over the ship!!! It is like this every year. But after it gets put in, he is like " I am glad we decided to put it in afterall." He makes me want to run away and join the circus some days.

Usually its in the 80's or 90's on Memorial Day weekend in Northern California. Saw lots of boats and RV's going to Lake Shasta. It was threating rain, cold, and lots of thunder andlightening in the surrounding area this last weekend. Its just fine with me as it can get very hot here during June, July, August like 110 or higher. Thank goodness for air conditioning!

I'm here in Portland, Or. where we've had pretty much rain, rain, rain. Right now, I'd give pretty much anything to have some 80 to 90 degree days, even the humidity. We've had a few nice warm day -- maybe 2-3 in a row but that's been it.
I think this is why a lot of Oregonian's have web feet! (LOL)

Out here in the desert, we've already had several 100* + days. Last week, we topped out at 106*. I'm terrified about our upcoming electric bill...may have to sell a body part to pay it!
Like I've said, the only difference between us and a baked potato is the foil wrapper and the sour cream!
Also, we are deep in a drought, with only 1/10th of an inch of rain this year. We ended last year at 9 inches under where we should have been, and it looks like this year may be the same.
For all of you who are able to grow gardens...think of me fondly when you dine - all my vegetables are those pasty flavorless things from the grocery store!
