Well it's July and the hot weather is here and I still like living here.   Many back home said, "wait until the summer" thinking I'd hightail it right back after some oppresive steamy weather. 

Nope.  Loving every bit of it.  Well maybe I wouldn't if I was a roof worker or landscaper but since I don't have to do these sorts of jobs the heat really doesn't bother me much. 

Actually we've been watching the weather back home and they've had some days hotter than we have down here in sunny Florida with a lot less AC to help get thru the days. 

We've always had some yucky humid sticky weather in Maine during the summer months.  So actually there's not a huge difference in the summer temps between Florida  and Maine.  The only diff is Maine may have a nice humid free day here and there while we pretty much have humidity everyday broken up only a wee bit by the late afternoon tropical storms that blow in and out of here on a daily basis. 

This week promises to be hot all week.  Really hot.   It should hit the 90's all week with high humidy.  But that's ok.  We go running, biking and swimming about 6-7 pm anyhow.  It's still hot, but great training weather. 

Last night we rode our bikes over to one of the pools and then clocked for mileage the loop around it looking for a three mile running loop.  We then hopped off our bikes, ran the loop back to the pool starting point and went swimming.  I do about 6-10 laps of swimming while he does anywhere between 20-50 laps.  I'm feeling stronger and more confident in my swimming daily. 

We then head for home refreshed and cooled biking the two or so miles back to the house where we have a late dinner and watch a bit of tv.  It's pretty much a routine now for us. 

Tonight I'm going to have B-B-Q spareribs that will be finished off in the crockpot so when we get home very little prep will have to be done. 

I've got big news but I've been promised secrecy until I'm let loose....hopefully soon!  

Until then...have a great safe hot summer!
