June 29th - Still HOT!!!

Yesterday we went to town for a few supplies but I didn't do much beyond that. The news last night reported that yesterday was the hotted June day ever recorded in the area. Temps were reported as being between 106-108 depending on to whom you were listening.

This morning we got up early and did more tree/bush trimming. It was around 10 when I unloaded the truck. The temperature was 90. It is currently 100 and still on its way up.

By the time I unloaded the truck and did a few small odd jobs I was done for the day. I took a shower to cool down and rested until lunch.

After lunch we headed for Kelsey and Andy's. Kathy is helping Kelsey fix food things for the get together after Lydia's dedication on Sunday.

In case you have picked up on it from previous posts, the weather in Missouri SUCKS!!! It has now been over 100 degrees for at least 3 days in a row and the high are forecast to be over 100 degrees on Saturday and Sunday. For Saturday through Thursday there are two days when the high is forecast to only be in the 98 & 99. Every other day is forecast to be over 100. No rain in the forecast.

I am thankful for air conditioning. Without it I would have been headed north and not stopped until I approached the Canadian border.

Hope all who read this are also in an air conditioned space if you are in this heat wave. May God bless you and yours.
