**
The best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.

Hot water now comes out of both taps.

You can make sun tea instantly.

You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding iron.

The temperature drops below 95 and you feel a little chilly.

You discover that in July it only take two fingers to steer your car.

You discover that you can get sun burned through your car windows.

You actually burn your hand opening the car door.

You break into a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30 a.m..

Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end up lying on the payment and cook to death?"

You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.

The birds have to use pot holders to pull worms out of the ground.

You don't have to heat your pool or the hot tub. You also never use either one.

The potatoes cook underground, so all you have to do is pull one out and add butter, salt, and pepper.

Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying hard-boiled eggs.

The cows are giving evaporated milk.

The trees are whistling for the dogs.

** I used to live there for 5 years. The asphalt does indeed go liquid (plastic really) when it gets hot enough. Lots of the painted cross-walks show how the asphalt moves backward to form ripples as car tires push them around. The gravel settles to the bottom of the road over time.

Now I live in the central valley of California and it heats up the same way in the summer. Car doors and seat belts really do burn you. Every tree in the parking lot at the mall has a small clot of cars parked under it. Smart drivers learn where the shade will be when they come back out to their car and park appropriately.

The only question that comes to mind is - why?

I know that the whole AR System Priesthood thingy puts dedicated believers
in the Temple of High Tech through trials and tribulations every now and
again, but living in a place where the asphalt turns to liquid, and the
seat belt burns oneself... aaaaahhh...

I am from the Great State of Minnesota which means that I would melt under
these conditions, unless of course, someone has a refrigerator truck from
which I can work.

** I lived in North Dakota when I was young and my father was in the Air Force. You all have enough crazy weather of your own.

Santa Claus. Jack Frost. The Abominable Snowman. The Yeti (aka me when I
skip a couple of days shaving during whitetail season). 8-)

Ahh... It's not so bad up here now... Here we have a new Minnesota - a
State that sees 'brown' winters and has only but a few meager inches of
snow on the ground and the longest string of 90+ degree days on record
this past year. There has to be someplace out there where the temp never
gets above 75 and below 60. Now those people have it made.

**
I lived in Kuwait for nearly 7 years... It gets hotter than the 90's during the peak of the summer, and there is very little difference there too between the tepretures of water from the cold and hot water taps.. Wasn't too much fun taking a shower in the afternoons if needed!

Ahhh . . . you know you live in the "Great White North" when you have to
plug in your car at night, or have to decide WHICH snowmobile suit you'll
wear to walk out and get the mail. And Will, do they still drink Moose
Juice? (To the unitiated, Moose Juice is part Moosehead beer, part
moonshine. The portions vary depending on your locale and how long it's
already been winter. Plus, whatever you don't drink, you can always pour in
your snowmobile tank to get you home.) And I still remember the seasons:
Winter, More Winter, The Thaw, and Construction!

Snowmobile suits are a fashion statement. We have all kinds of them. Mine
is blaze orange and used during white tail season. The folks that own the
place where I go to hunt call me "The Great Pumpkin."

Moose Juice?!?!?! What's that?

Happy Tuesday - three more to go.
