It looked ugly for a while but in the end it barely rained, no real wind and we were treated to bright red clouds against a clear blue sky.

The picture is misleading. It was 97 degrees F at the time. Fortunately the humidity was very low so you could walk around without winding up in a puddle of sweat.

Already hot as hell and the pool is the place to be.

About time, too, it's like 99 F outside right now.

Update: Despite my hesitation, joining the pool was a good idea. When it reach 97F on sunday, I was *real glad* I could walk 300 yards and be in the water!

The hesistation was because of this area. People around here are...well, kind of uppity and very cliquish. I grew up somewhat poor and more or less despise that kind of thing. But there are a lot of nice people in this neighborhood and they're the people that turn up at the pool. So it all worked out.

They finished the game but we left in the 4th inning as it started 2 hours late and was incredibly humid. And Lancaster lost 4-1.
