It was around 109 daily for about 4 days straight which with our humidity feels like an oven. August is normally when summer really sucks.


I remember both of those years, was on a backhoe

I remember 1980 too. Late wife was pregnant with our first who was born that September. Miserable hot summer for her. Hurricane Allen broke that heat wave!

And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
