Getting hot hot hot

I definitely remember the heat last summer. The dripping, stifling, as soon as you walk outside you can't breathe hot but I forgot about the storms. Believe me, we welcome the rain. It means a chance to catch up on work and the possibility of a day off. The thunder and lightening, however, still slightly terrify the little girl inside of me. This is why Todd took pictures of the storm while standing outside and I took pictures from the window :) I don't think I did too bad though! The heat is something else here. Worse than I remember CA heat although that might just be because there isn't a movie theater nearby for me to take refuge in. Actually I think it is worse here. Wayne (a surveyor) was just saying that when he worked at mt iser it got to 50 degrees Celsius. Look it up, it's HOT. So hot in fact that when he set up his Total Station and pushed the tripod into the pavement, it pushed right through. The tar was melting under his feet hot. Definitely fry and egg on the bonnet of a car hot. So if you are freezing this Thanksgiving, remember me and send some cool weather my way!
