Summer of 2011 was equally dismal. It’s only 100 over here in East Texas but the humidity is 110%.
Down in the Ouachitas you can watch the steam come off the trees when it gets like this. It just cooks. I don’t know why I ever wanted to come home to retire, thought it was family but they are mostly gone now. I have sworn for years I would never spend another July and August in Oklahoma or Texas but I still do.
The snakes seem to love it. Weather like this is when I got bit by a copperhead on the Kiamichi River surveying. Just glad it wasn’t a rattler.
