Hotter than blazes

Last week we were dealing with temperatures in the 50s and rain, rain, rain. Yesterday we hit a record high of 97 degrees. I've lived here for quite a while (over 2 decades), so you think I wouldn't be surprised at these temperature fluctuations, but I still am. Fortunately, we turned on the air conditioner in the morning and Tim and the boys came home and collapsed after working in the heat. Mark, our social butterfly, was in bed before ten! Quite amazing.

Today our van is in the shop to get the air conditioner fixed/recharged. I wanted to bring it in last week, but the mechanics can't test it unless the temperature outside is at least in the 70s.

I'll be home packing the camper and cleaning it out for our trip this weekend to Wisconsin Dells. Hopefully it won't be too hot--or we will be spending a lot of time in water parks, the pool, or our air-conditioned camper.

Till next time,
