So I'm sitting On The back porch enjoying a nice cigar with my Dad as I get the grill going and my wife comments, "it's actually not that bad out here as long as you're in the shade". I then walk over to set my BBQ Guru and I notice the temp reading on the probe (which is also in the shade) reads 96 degrees. It's amazing what you can get used to....

went to a wedding last night, first thing I see parked close to the front door is an HVAC repairman's vehicle. told the wife......that's not good!.....ceremony was outside facing setting sun, they had two kids hanging behind the crowd with several ice packs, waiting for someone to drop. texas type crowd, no one dropped. went inside, small room with lots of people and little air only meant one thing, I hung by the bartender pouring cold beers all night. gotta love a june wedding........

We were out on Lake Travis yesterday and it was still hot as hell. NO BREEZE!
Had to keep the boat moving to stay cool which made it harder to mix fresh adult bev's.
