It was in the 80's and muggy at 1:00 this morning.

I hope there's some cold air behind those afternoon thunder storms.

Pure jealousy! Got the hole for the foundation dug in a little over an hour, had conduit about 3 feet down for the electricity and such, dug under those with a trowel. Pinned the rebar into the foundation. We wanted to pour it today but we gotta wait for the inspector first, so tomorrow morning I've got a hot date with a wheel barrow & shovel and a whole lotta cement!

The thermometer at the house here says 99, and it's in the shade. Not sure how accurate that is but it sure feels like it out there! Think I'll take a bike ride soon!
