Triple Digits

There are people who like to laugh whenever I say it's "hot" here.  It is true that we do not live in the hottest part of the country.  In fact, we usually only average about a dozen days over 90 degrees each year.  It's quite nice, really.  I like it! :)

However, according to the local TV station's website, today we hit 101 degrees here in Vancouver.  Now, I don't care where you live, that's HOT!  And especially for us NorthWesters who are used to seeing those kinds of numbers elsewhere while thinking to ourselves, "I love living here where it doesn't got that hot!" 

Needless to say, we broke the record high today.  But thankfully, we do still live in the NorthWest and even though tomorrow will be in the mid 90s, on Monday we'll be back in the 80s and by mid-week, we'll be right back where I like it - in the 70s.  That's one of the great things about summers here.  While we do occasionally get up in the 90s, it is usually for just a couple of days and then we're back down in the 70s and 80s for several days before we are even threatened with 90 degree weather again. 

I love living in the NorthWest! :)
