Down here in Texas, that is the forecast everyday until Labor Day.

Yep, and I'll be on ladders most every day until then.

If you've worked a summer in the Texas sun, I think you can rightfully claim to love this place (and I do).

I roofed apartments in Dallas for two summers to make some college money, before the illegals came in. That was rough hauling shingles up a two-story ladder to stock the roof when it was too hot to lay the shingles. Also did demolition of a junior high, home construction, wheat harvest, and worked for a boat motor repairman. I have spent my time in hades lite but I would rather be outside then in the prison cell known as a cubicle anyday. But, the pay is much better.
