RELIEF

I THOUGHT WHEN WE WERE HOUSE SITTING IN JULY AND EVERYDAY THE TEMPERATURE WENT OVER 110 DEGREES, THAT WE WERE LUCKY TO BE SPENDING THE HOTTEST WEEK OF THE YEAR IN A SWIMMING POOL.

I WAS WRONG. LAST WEEK THE TEMPERTURE WENT UP OVER 115 DEGREES EVERYDAY.  IT WAS HORRIBLE!  WE HUDDLED IN THE CAMPER UNDER THE A/C VENT ALL DAY, AND WERE ACTUALLY RELIEVED TO GO TO WORK AND GET OUR MINDS OFF THE HEAT.

OUR ELECTRIC BILL FOR THE A/C WAS UP 25% FOR THE WEEK.  SUSIE THE CAT IS NEARLY DEAD, AND MARY AND I WERE ON THE VERGE OF “GROWLEY” WITH EACH OTHER. 

 LAS VEGAS HIT NEW HIGH TEMPERTURE RECORDS AND BULLHEAD CITY AND NEEDLES WERE LISTED AS THE HOTTEST SPOTS IN THE USA.

“RELIEF” CAME FROM OUR PACKER FAN BUDDY, DAWN.  SHE WAS IN TOWN FOR A COUPLE WEEKS FROM TEXAS WHERE HER HUSBAND COLE IS WORKING.  THANK GOD, SHE INVITED US OVER FOR A POOL PARTY. MARY AND I SPENT FIVE HOURS SITTING AND SWIMMING IN THE POOL.

DAWN, THANKS SO MUCH!!!
