I rode in the heat wave today: did you?

No help in sight.....

I haven't ridden the motorcycle since about April or May, but I've been pedaling which...while being lighter in gear... requires considerably more physical exertion and yields less wind to cool me off.

Yes...it's getting a little scary as the sources of drinking water are drying up. The wheat crop was shit...the corn crop is completely destroyed....I've heard some farmers saying they aren't even going to plant soybeans or milo this year.

Not sure how this story can end well if it doesn't rain...a lot....SOON.

Scary shit, we havent had much rain here either, not to that level obviously but we had a small fire at the house sun night and the dryness probably accelerated it. We still dont know how it started.

Yeah, the house next door to me burned down (up?) about a week ago. It was freaky how fast that place went up. House, yard, fence, trees...all caught fire super fast.

That one was a back deck charcoal grill left unattended.

Wow, that sucks. Given another few minutes we could have suffered the same fate.
