I'm in a Fall frame of mind, too! I think it might be that I've been working on Halloween blocks. Two weeks ago while I was at WalMart they were playing Christmas carols to try and cool everyone down - this was during the hottest part of our heatwave! Good try, but my ice cream still melted before I got home with it!

Pam, I know what you mean about the Las Vegas heat. When I moved there in 1969 there was such a thing as dry heat. Now the valley is so over populated and everyone has a pool in their back yard and sprinkler systems, not to mention the man-made lakes everywhere, naturally the humidity has gone up and up. I remember getting into my car and burning my hand on the door handle and then the steering wheel being too hot to handle. It's a real challenge living in that weather. All you can do is dash from one air-conditioned space to the next!! If it hadn't been for the slurpees at 7-Eleven I probably wouldn't have made it through!!
