I spent 77-81 in Homestead Fl. (30 miles south of Miami) and the temps never made it over 100 but the humidity was horrible. No smog though.

Gets pretty humid here. Some days it's just ridiculous. I can handle heat, but, I do not like the humidity!

Air Force?

My dad used to say that too. For me, I can't handle either of them.

Afternoon Jim & Gang.

I always seem to over do it. When you get old if you stop you might not get started again.
I have to go get x-rays of my new knee then see my Orthopedic doctor on Tuesday for my 3 month check-up.

Then back to our place on Wed-Thurs.

I have to prepare the apt for a bed bug spraying. Those things are harder than heck to get rid of. Thought they were gone for good when I moved in here, but they came back.

Evening Jim.

Jim, that doesn't sound like fun. We are having lots of ants & bugs this year because of the above normal rain & humidity. No bed bugs thank God.

Yeah, pray you never get them. They are almost impossible to get rid of once you have them. I did not see one here for the first 6-7 months I lived here, then all of a sudden, they were back.

Fairly uneventful. I helped Dave put the 39" bead locks together for the Bronco. Other than that, I just spent some time with the family.

Well, doesn't sound too bad. Actually spent some time on the 67's box, getting the floor patched. Hope to have all those patches done here in the next week or so, so I can epoxy/urethane/undercoat the underside.
