July 2018 all topic thread

Hello all,

Summer is in full force here, and I for one am already wishing for Fall. Don't even want to see my next PG&E bill.

That sounds like a plan. We are looking forward to the "COOLER" temperatures that are forecast. Boy Scout fundraiser at the concert and fireworks in Anderson.

Here is a snapshot from last night.

Yeah, my brother saw the high of 119* and had to go outside to be able to tell his coworkers that he'd been outside at 119*.

Happy pre-Independence Day. Sitting here watching the fireworks from our refreshment booth (Boy Scout Troop fundraiser).

Not able to do much because of a bite that has my south paw swollen to almost double.
