How hot can it get???

Texas hot. . .

Got in my car this afternoon and the dashboard thermometer read an unbelievable 117 degrees!

Give me a break!

I remember when we moved back to Dallas in the summer of 1980, we faced a record number of 100-plus days in a row. I remember that well because that was the summer I installed a sprinkler system in my new yard in Richardson.

This summer feels much worse.

Guess I'm just that much older now--almost 30 years older, come to think of it.

Man alive, it's been hot as. . .blazes!

I keep wondering why I live in Texas.

Any really hot weather memories to share out there?
