Some don't like it hot


It finally cooled down enough... It has been 90 degrees or warmer for 11 or 12 days straight- just too much for us in Oregon especially those 100* plus degree days [4 of them in a row that shattered all time high records].

Some of what we did to beat the heat: enjoyed our neighbor's above ground pool, turned on our own air conditioning [most of those who live in Portland area do not have air conditioning which is why the heat wave is really dangerous up here in the NW], saw a double feature for the price of $4 for me and $3 each kid [Star Trek was awesome and Wolverine was alright], use the sprinklers and the hose, popsicles, lemonade, grilled our food outside and realized that ice cream is fine for lunch or dinner, and realized that no matter how hot we were- it is even hotter over there where Dan is. Thanks honey for enduring the 130* days!
