June 09

A grandmometer is a device used in determining when it is too hot and humid outside for any man or beast to exist. Basically, take grand mom outside. When she passes out, you know you need to get into a cooled environment a.s.a.p.

My grandmometer just broke.

With June 10th temperatures reaching a high that hasn’t been seen in the Philly area for close to 75 years, (high of 98, humidity at around the same, and the Realfeel index at 103), all I can say is God bless Willis Haviland Carrier….who in 1902 created the first modern electric air conditioner.
Stay cool!

	Tiffany Morriswrote: I haven't been by here in a while. I hope you guys are keeping cool! It's been hot here too... but we are use to the hot temps in the south as well as the humidity! YUCK! Hope everything is going well for you and your girls! Hugs - Tiff June 12

	Keithwrote: Hey Scarecrow, long time no see/hear! How have you been? I hope all is well with the family. Wow, the heat is really a monster out there huh? My Mom is experiencing her first North Carolina summer right now, and she says it is really muggy and humid, on top of the 98 degrees temperatures, and she says you just can't do anything outside. We're going out to visit her in August, so I'll get to experience it firsthand. I'm beginning to think if I buy a house out there, the number one "must-have" item is going to be a swimming pool! Anyway, take care and have a tall cool one on me! Cheers! Keith ~ June 10
	Stacy Gwrote: Hotter than normal this side of the state also. So glad the pools are open now. I couldn't believe my eyes when I logged on that you had posted. So glad to hear from you. BTW - did you get the link to my new place? If not it is http://blessedwithboyz.blogspot.com/ Stop by sometime. We all still miss you like crazy. -S. June 9
	Becca Kwrote: And to think that here on the west coast it is only 53* and cloudy and windy... :-) Hope that it cools down for you soon! Hugs, Becca June 9
