I worked two summers in E. Texas and L.A. . sun up till just before dark, running behind a Ditch Witch 100 in sand, so hot you couldn't breath, Man was I in shape for 108 degree 2 a days in Texas, we all played both ways back then. Later in life worked in Dallas 30 some years as a steel worker, 1980 was so hot every one wanted on Grave Yard shift, it was 99 degrees that summer at 6 AM outside, buddie put a thermometer in WHSE , it was 137 inside on day shift, MPO came walking by and saw it, he went straight to Jim, ripped his ass ,after he took it down , he said what are you doing, trying to cause a walk out, funny as hell...What doesn't kill ya make you stronger !
