LOL about the heat, one thing folks kept us (those cutting with chainsaws and hauling trees) with was water and cokes. We didn’t have government officials telling us to get out of the sun every 1/2 hour like with the oil spill so we just kept on working sun up to sun down ;^)

Heck yeah, that heat would bring you down fast. When the water was restored and that rain bird shower head was installed it made the sun up to sun down work tolerable. The beer after sunset helped too ;D!

I'm watching Earl in the Caribbean right now. If we can make it to mid September hopefully we're out of the weeds.
