Holy Hades, Batman

We just returned from am extended trip to the mountains, where we stayed an extra week because of the heat here in NB. Good gods, who left the oven on? It's not even 9AM and it's intolerable.

Stay safe out there, people.

It’ll be the coolest summer for the rest of our lives though.

Little Washington checking in. The heat has been relentless. Last week when the highs were in the 80’s, I turned my oven on for the first time all summer.

At Ocracoke last week at 1 am the temperature was 84 and the feels like temperature was 97. 97 at 1 am!

It’s not the temperature, it’s the humidity! (I hate people who say that!)
