That’s where it stands – maybe try to grab the rest later when it cools down a bit. Hat tip to Kajagoogoo

I’m almost to 1100. Picked up 6 today before the heat got to me, and I’ll see about getting the rest tomorrow. It’s only 106 but feels hotter than that. Time to go outside again and fry some eggs on the pavement.

OK, so it was morning, but that’s the song that came into my head when I had to come up with a title for this post. Between yesterday and today, picked up a cool 7 within a few miles of the house. There are some others nearby but I need to get my CRV back from Gillian to go off-road. The Jetta just won’t make it

The family and I just returned from a trip to NY for my niece’s wedding. Had a great time, went sailing 3 times on my brother-in-law’s 34′ boat and even managed to grab a few caches. The sailing was fantastic even though the winds were light. Just being on the water – Long Island Sound – was soothing to the soul. On one trip we took Kellen who got his sea legs rather quickly. Saw some old friends which is always good including one I hadn’t seen in 30 years, did a trip into NYC, ate great food and in short had a nice, but brief visit to my old home turf. Couldn’t live there, but great to visit.
