We had summer this past weekend. It hit 93 (33.8C) yesterday, and to
us pale northwesterners, it felt pretty dang hot! Yes, I know,
everyone else sneers at our complaints of being too warm. However,
today we have the on shore flow and a significant temperature drop.
We
did our favorite ride in Carnation Valley Saturday. We left WAY too
late in the day. I ended up overheating, and had to sit in the shade
and pour water on my head.
A significant water control project is being done. The fields in the background almost always flood in the winter.
Yesterday
we were up and out earlier. We did the 5 mile walk with the giant
hill. We're getting faster on the hill, and I no longer have to stop
for a breather. So there is progress on that fitness frontier.
This
is what we're doing today. Jim's going in for a screening tomorrow
morning, so he's spending the day drinking gatorade and chicken broth,
eating jello and generally starving to death. Note to self in the future; Campbell's is the least disgusting chicken broth.
Other than this maties, I have zippity doo-dah all to report.
Hi Allison,
ReplyDeleteWhere's that second picture taken?
Also, I meant to comment the other day on your pic of the Carnation Golf Course. The housing (if it ever gets built) will be up on the hill, and I believe the County is negotiating to get the land in the valley for ag use.
