To anyone who claims that summer is better than winter, you're wrong and you should feel bad. Just came back inside from attempting to wash the truck and said screw it after only rinsing it off. It is currently 106* with a feels like of 117* at my house. No wind either. It's brutal. I'll take 30* over this any day.
Greetings TexasRebel,
Right now as I type this in it's 71° and partly-cloudy up here in the finger lakes region of upstate NY.
I love the weather up here. I love all 4 seasons here. But I hate the rust. And I detest the corrupt,
power-hungry uniparty state of NY government.
And I say this as only an older dude who was born in Ft. Worth, TX back when Eisenhower was
president can. Man, I wish that upstate & downstate NY would split it in 2. Downstate
could continue down their chosen path, and upstate would end up with a Texas style system of
government? It would be the best of all worlds. One can dream. :0)
Seriously, I still remember the Casa Manana. And the giant Reddy Kilowatt that used to adorn
the side of the electric power plant off of Spur-303. And Tex at the State Fair. Tons of memories,
all of them good. And yeah, as a kid I remember how hot it was. Working on my bicycle, one of
my earliest lessons was that if I left the hand tools in the sun, they became too hot to touch. :0)
Anyway, overall
color me jealous whenever I see fellow Texans doing their Texas thing...
Stay as cool as possible!
