We’ll be at church youth camp all week in Pensacola. Hopefully the week will be filled with lots of indoor activities!
Please take care of your animals. Make sure they have lots of fresh, cool water and keep them in the air conditioning if possible. Do the best you can for your horses, cows, etc.
The Weather Channel said that the Mobile-Pensacola area would be flirting with 100 degree days for several more days. I think it’s past flirting, and at least engaged or married to the 100 degree days already.
it got so hot today i saw a dog chasing a cat and they were both walking!
