Trump has nothing to do with Peoria's taxes. He probably has no idea where Peoria Il. is, probably has no idea how to pronounce it anyway. LOL

I'm sure the wildfires change the air..

Susan's sister lives in New Mexico and they were saying there is a haze in the air

Good hot and humid Friday evening Illinois and Ford Truck enthusiasts, Ken, Rod, and Sean.

Finally, we have cooler weather coming here tonight. Severe thunderstorms should arrive around 10:00 this evening, this is our last chance for rain until Tuesday.

Our rain and cooler temperatures are in the Quad Cities area now, about 75 miles away.

Was 92° and sunny today with a dew point of 71°.

Was too nasty to go outside again today so we sat in front of the TV again. LOL
