Barry, we're here. I think everybody is doing their errands early in the day and hibernating til the sun goes down if they aren't on vacation. The cars get so hot while you're in shopping you hate to open the door. I live in Southern California and it's not as humid as back in Iowa but it's been over 50% some days. Then you feel it more. Irma, my Mom told me she used to take naps on the floor of the house to try to keep cool. She didn't tolerate the heat any better than I do! I've been back to Iowa in summer and I remember those hot nights out on my Grandma's farm. I don't see how the men worked so many hours in the sun getting the hay in but I guess they ate a lot of water and lemonade. We usually went back in October when it was turning cooler and the leaves were so pretty. (probably my Mom's idea!!!!) Gosh, just talking about it makes me want to go back again!
