HOT HOT HOT- TOO HOT

So, here in the Portland, OR area we are in a severe heat wave, the last time it was this hot for this long was way back in 1981 ( the good ol days). For those of you who don't live in the pacific northwest, we are in the middle of 3 straight days of over 100 degrees !!
I like nice weather, don't get me wrong, but seriously, I do not need 100 degree weather, let's keep it around 80 to 85- with a slight breeze-- that is perfect weather to me !!
So with the hot temps things change, like my daughter's soccer practice that was scheduled for last night at 6:30 pm , because of the extreme temps it was cancelled. Know one wants to put kids in danger because of the weather. It was in the 90's all weekend and we were at a soccer tournament with NO SHADE anywhere to be found, it made for a long day friday, saturday and even sunday.
See most of us up here like nice weather, but almost nobody likes it this hot . It just makes it unbearable for outdoor activites. On monday night it was still 90 degrees at 10pm and it was 70 degrees at 5 am this morning, that is rare. Then I have this one friend who is planning a trip to Vegas for late August. I told her she must be crazy, who in their right mind wants to go to Vegas when it will be like 107 every day that time of year. I mean, yes you can hang at the pool but after a while, even that gets too hot for this dude. But she did spend most of her youth in Arizona, so maybe she can handle it better than I would. I am not bashing Vegas, I am just saying that I would never go there that time of year, but to each it's own and I am sure she will have a great time with her family.
Besides this heat wave we are having excellent weather this summer. It has been great, most of the summer it has been in the 80's and low 90's.
So we will all deal with this heat wave for a few more days, then it should be back in the mid 80's next week, which as you know is perfect for me.
So stay cool, hydrate and enjoy every day !!!!!!!!!
