The Heat!!!

[gustygirl]

Hi everyone,
It has been incredibly hot here in Southern California.  This past week was a scorcher and I was outside and the heat just drains you.  It is starting to cool off but WOW!.  I had a friend in Palm Desert and it was a 113 degrees.  oh well just wanted to share.

Tracey,

I'm in Santa Barbara. We had a few miserable days. Yesterday was very livable. This morning it's a bit cool.

Hi Audrey,
It is getting better.  I live near Marina Del Rey and the ocean breeze is great.  I love Santa Barbara and will probably take my daughter on a train ride up there and spend the day in the fall.  Take care.

It's finally "cooled down" in my area of CA! Yea! I don't live in the desert and it was 110 last Saturday... I was out weeding in the garden not realizing how high the temp was (insert wilted smiley here)

it snowed one week here, and then REALLY hot the next week.  i'm glad we seem to be done with the snow now.

Dominique,

Where you at?

Tracey, if you take the train up here, how do you get around? Or do you get off in downtown, walk and then come back to the train station?

It's not even that hot in colorado here. 90 something today - and I still stay inside in the AC. Hope it cools down for you all in CA!

Hey Audrey,
We get off in downtown and walk around.  We did it before two years ago and it was fun.

Tracey,

Ok...so you can get off there, spend the day, eat dinner and head home all without ever needing a car. I think you can do that in San Diego too if I'm not mistaken.

You're right, the San Diego station takes you into downtown near the Gaslamp District. But, it's kind of spread out from there. Balboa Park, the Zoo and Sea World are probably manageable by taxi though. It's been awhile since I worked downtown there, but they cater to the tourists. I wouldn't be surprised if they have a shuttle service.

Tracey, I used to work on Santa Monica Blvd. I think that's a hop-skip-jump away

  its hot here in louisiana 103 degrees today!! but we have something here worse than heat.... HUMIDITY... and that makes it soo much worse.. i can't keep enough drinks in the house becasue we are drinking them so fast to stay hydrated and  cool. i want to be somewhere say, Denver

[Audrey]

Danielle,

Come visit. It's cold here!!! We were hit with that high humidity when we visited a few weeks ago.

Hi Danielle,
I'm in Denver - and it's still hot. No humidity though which makes a huge difference!
Still have the ac on high!
I'm sweating like a little  !

  ladies i must come and visit! lol i will be leaving friday for nebraska..anyone been there? just wondering what to expect

[housefull7]

Well I would like to say that we can compete with the over 100 degrees numbers here in northern Florida but it only got up into the low 90's today.  However, I will say this add the humidity factor into that and it probably feels pretty close!  The worst part is that we just came back from vacation in the Smokey Mountains where one night it got down into the upper 50's!  AARRGH!  Boy was it hard to come home!
