WE HAVE GOT THE HOTS

113 degrees F. today. About six percent humidity.

It gets you in the face when you go out. Like being hit by a wet cloth only this is hot and dry. A general whap of dry heat.

We are more careful in our night walk. Booker needs to be reminded to stay on the grass and on shady pavement.

As soon as the sun is off the surface, the asphalt cools right off. Concrete is always cooler than asphalt.

Grass is the best of course.

We can do a 30 minute walk right here in the complex and stay on safe feet.

Some friends bought their dogs booties. One loves them. The other, well, not so much.

I don't think that Booker is a candidate for boots. He is happy enough watching his step and I help him as well.

We do get to open the house from about 3 AM until 10 AM or so. Then, time for air.

We keep the house at 79. Most people are a lot lower than that. Cooler is really uncomfortable for me.

That is the summer story. Our "winter".
