Actually only one of my favourite years...

 

Oh man tell me about it!!! Was raining here from the start of the year till July3. Sitting through the boy's little leauge games shivering holding an umbrella the whole season. Then clear and mild all summer, July-Aug, never much warmer than 80s with a show or two. Now it's Sept and we've been in the 90s the last week or so and still continuing! Totally unreal weather, especially this year!

 

yeah its crazy you can look at the weather then go outside and it has changed lol thats how it is here weve had numerous days in the past month that it was in the 100's and humidity was unreal but thats ok winter is comeing so itll be nice plus my garage has a/c and heat lol

 

Not a garage sound like heaven... AC and Heat... Happy truck!

 

Hey its only a window unit a/c and a couple fans but it works lol
