It's been hot here too!

#1 Post by Marc K » Mon Aug 07, 2023 7:23 am

Every day for the last 20 days has been over 100 degrees and more of the same to come because it's summer. It doesn't feel so bad when cruising on the water, so we still get out 3-4 days per week.

Even 103F isn't enough to keep us inside all day. Maybe that will change when I get old :lol3 but sometimes you just gotta sit outside when in the breeze and read. No beers were injured but several may have been consumed.

Nice! We do the same, pull into a cove and float around on the big fat pool noodles, or the rollup float.
