Hear that, @Billy ? You can up your bass game with space lasers!

You can't go up from perfection...

108° ufdah. 93 yesterday but felt like 100°. At least the one thing about the heat here it’s not like Florida when I was there in June. That stuff just penetrates you and makes you sweat from every pore. At least here while miserable if outside you catch a cool summer breeze from time to time. Down there you get your breathe taken away by the hot sultry salty devils breath if any.

When at almost midnight it's still 81F alongside the lower Columbia River, as it is now, ...now that is truly weirdly warm for this region.

It does seem like there's a whole lot of records being broken recently.
