feeling the heat

I'm from Middle Tenn and lived in South GA for 5 yrs and I'm going to say that the heat we've experienced these past two weeks have been some of the hottest I've ever seen. I've been told that this area has been about 23 degrees above average.. Did you know that the heat wave is cooling down tomorrow with highs only in the mid 80's and the evenings in the 50's WOW...the day we're leaving town the heat wave breaks.. Does anyone want to say that Reid brought this heat wave to MI.. We have been asked real nicely to hurry up and leave.

In spite of the heat we had a good time last night with our friends. We grilled out hotdogs with Peggy and Jimmy and Bob and Nancy. It's a small world isn't it.. We've bought into this membership park about 5 yrs ago cause we'd be spending time in this area and it is Bob and Nancy's park too. We met Peggy and Jimmy in Texas through her brother, Larry a couple years ago. We had no idea that they lived only about 10 miles for our park so it was fun seeing some of our TX friends this summer.  We also saw Rita and Dan this trip too.

We waited till about 10:20 for the fire works to begin and once they did Molly wasn't the least bit impressed.. she went crazy.. she was on a leash but she was running trying to get away for the noise and so scared that it was sad. I grabbed her up as soon as I could catch her and we headed inside to finish watching but she was still so nervous.. She wanted to sit beside my legs slightly under them but she didn't want to be held.. lucky for us the "show" didn't last long and once the noise stopped she was ok.. Lady sat outside with Reid and quietly watched them all.. In Molly's defense it was her first fireworks so hopefully it will get better next year.

Tomorrow we're heading back to Elkhart. We have an apt to get the fridge replaced. We don't know how long we'll be there but hoping it's only a couple of days..From there we're heading to NV.. It's too hot to be in the RV all summer when we have a house in NV (although once we head back the headwave will end!!!!) Not sure where we're going on our trip back but I believe it might be some new states for us.. So I'll be keeping you informed on the travels..

Danny is coming to visit the end of July so that will give me something to look forward to.
