@ninjawife we are in OCMD at our beach "closet".  Its gorgeous on the beach today.

Those are multi-million dollar homes.  And the beach is cordoned off not for his personal use but for safety as it would be for any other high ranking official.  We love Rehobeth but it has gotten cost prohibitive.  

 

Have fun!  


I do not have a home in the North Shore area which is why we use the state parks for beach access.  All of Gordons Pond is closed today b/c Joe is there.  They did not close the entire beach when he was a senator or when he was vice president so they do not close the beach for any high ranking official.

CT's hot today. But I've seen it worse.

Was outside actually planting pots just now on my deck...and though the hottest sun doesn't hit my deck this time of day..it wasn't unbearable. Was hotter this morning when I tried to plant, when sun was directly hitting me then. I'm near the shoreline and on a river...we have some breezes going on today...albeit warm ones!

 

Heading to Maine tomorrow through the weekend....so we'll see how it is up there! It's an annual family trip...some years we got some rain, clouds, cool temps....I'd rather have this. Full fledged summer's ok by me. It's so short-lived and fleeting here, I just enjoy this time of year in all it's incarnations. Always say...I'd much rather be complaining about the heat than the cold and snow!

 

That said....I'm grateful for air conditioning!! Everyone, stay safe, drink plenty of water too. (note to self)

@ninjawife  It is the Secret Service's call as to what is closed and what is not closed when an official with SS protection visits different areas.

 

They know this area well now so the call for certain security measures would be known.

 

If the official is traveling to any area, an advance team of Agents go before the visit to map out what particular areas of concern need to be addressed.

 

It is their call.

Feels like an oven out there, here in PA.

 

Tomorrow begins summer.

91 degrees in RI with a heat index of 101.   The air is so thick it's hard to breathe.  We are just staying inside with the AC for these few days of the heat from he**.    Really I don't think I could live in the southeast or southwest, though I know out there it's a dry heat,  my oven has dry heat, LOL!

 

Anyway Friday should be an improvement, still quite warm but not as brutal.   Stay well everyone!

@LindaSal that always puzzled me when people would say that.  Like would you stick your head in the oven for any length of time.

    It's 85 in Williamsburg, VA, but will increase to the 90s over the weekend.  Friday, 91, Saturday 96, Sunday, 98:and continuing the next week!  
   My air conditioner is doing fine but when serviced several parts need replacing. I have the earliest appointment tomorrow morning since it will take several hours. 
    I only have one unit so I hope it will come back on properly. I don't open windows due to humidity, pollen and allergies. 
    My granddaughter and 4 great grandkids are all coming this weekend from South Dakota. Town is full of tourists as are parking lots.
     It's extremely dry, no rain in sight. I'm watering shrubs as much as possible. And a bluebird is nesting in a window box. I gave the birds cool water. They love it!

Time to go back to your room and crank the AC down low.  Read a book, watch TV, whatever, but stay inside.  That's how we Southerners get through the summer - AC, AC and more AC !

Thats what I did and we took a small trip to Stop and Shop for lunch items

Don't know how farmers and road crews can work outside all day. When I was a kid, we'd bale hay between 1 and 5 pm in the hottest part of the day. We'd sometimes unload the wagons in the morning when it was cooler.
