TWO
Just for the record, we had a 2% relative humidity yesterday.
It hits you right in the lungs. Dry. Drier. Driest.
I love it.
But for people who are not acclimated it is a bit of a jolt.
It is hard to figure the effect of being cooler when you get out of the pool. Even cold.
There is that funny nose thing that, if you don't drink a lot of water, will dry your mucous membranes out. Bloody noses.
The heat has been near or on record breaking level for about a week. That is why it is so dry.
We are under a strong high and it is keeping any cool, moist air out of the area.
In the meantime, I am enjoying it.
Franklin is less enthused. He really didn't want to walk last night and, once we were started, he had some 'turnaround' moments.
I think that I will begin to let him decide not to walk if the spirit isn't moving him.
