Yesterday I spent most of the day in long sleeves and slacks, and was reminded of the great joy of exiting an over-refrigerated Houston building to enter The Sauna that some people call outside and others put on the front of the newspaper like triple digits are rare in these parts. The news should be It’s the second week of August and this is the first time we’ve hit 100º!.

I also quite enjoy driving with the windows down and the a/c cranking (some to the floor vents) – and vice versa in the winter, nothing like a convertible with the heater cranking in freezing weather!

There’s always the sunning on a hot summer (or even early fall) day, then the jump into the cold watering hole.

Ahh, temperature gradients!
