| I do so like the heat of summer. I can take off clothes and get cool if too hot. I am a sun worshipper. PA can get in the 90's but really not that often. We do have weeks of heat waves that come and go. Am really looking to summer 2008. |

Karla,
Hot is right! I got back from the mountains yesterday where it was in the 70's and stepped out of the car to a heat index of 115.
funny how 200 miles and 4,000 feet of altitude can make such a difference. I wanna go back to the mountains.

Better to sweat in heat than to drown in rain.
From the sun one can creep under a tree, from a tsunami one doesn't have a chance to duck.
Better yet, think on an eskimo with freezed underwear in a blizzard.
Happy Celsius or is that Fahrenheit?

ooo... i was in texas last august.
funny that!
anyways... i like the way you apply the smothering heat
but its not necessarily a bad thing... iced tea and feet up...why not go for spanish siesta while youre at it.
my only thing is... summertime and the living is easy makes me think billie holiday/janis joplin and other countless greats who all sang that song... but beautiful... its one of my favourite songs... even though its sad.
you know... from sept 05 - march 07 i had a continuous summer...
winter does have its place... promise =) |

Hi Noon in Texas...Run for your life... YAY we've had summer for the past four days, it hit about 24 or 25... So payback time with storms soon..lol
Enjoy your fun fun fun, in the sun sun sun.... OOOOO, reminds me....
Its cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere,
I'm all alone, more or less.
Let me fly far away from here,
Fun, fun, fun, in the sun, sun, sun.
I want to lie, shipwrecked and comatose,
Drinking fresh mango juice,
Goldfish shoals, nibbling at my toes,
Fun, fun, fun, in the sun, sun, sun,
Fun, fun, fun, in the sun, sun, sun.
