Still HOT. And that's ok by me.

I saw a comment on the weather, that I'll try to recreate:

It may be hot, but I'm not in 115 degree heat with no shade, 5700 miles away from home, wearing full BDU, with helmet, carrying a weapon and a 70 pound pack, wondering if I'm going to be shot at or have to shoot, or step on a land mine.

Thank you to all who have served, and are serving.

And by the way, we're not shoveling, chipping at the ice on the windshields, hunching against the sub-zero wind chill either.

Today we had a breeze on the lake. The first day since we've been here, which was the 13th of July. It's been quiet water, mirror lake, for a week, except for the storm that blew through in an hour.

Frank and his guests, Ashlee, Trevor, and Kelsey, and I went out on the boat today. Tubing and Twistering. Smiles all around.

Frank fixed food for us, and after the kitchen was cleaned up, they went on their way back to Jackson.

We had a quiet evening just enjoying it.

It's finally cooled down (to 80) tonight, and the breeze has stopped again, too.

Tomorrow we want to go "Fish-ing" at the Fish store in Hale.

Stay cool, and thank you for reading. Hugs.
