HEAT


It's been really, really, really, really hot on the mountain lately.

PHEEEEEEEHHHHWWWWW. I just lost 10 lbs writing that!

As you know I also work part time in the bakery located at the bottom of the foothills. It's been over 100 in the kitchen the last two days. I make the cakes, and in three minutes they've risen to two feet.

Amanda says it's mind over matter. She doesn't sweat. I'm concerned for her. I sweat like a dog. Just pouring off me. All through my mouth. Since we don;t have electricity, we don't have any fans or centralized air. Giving up these luxuries seemed lofty to me, until the third days of 90 degree heat and 100 percent humidity...And that's at 8,000 feet.

I have taken to sticking my head into the brook nearby the cabin, and standing beneath the waterfalls, filing the claw foot tub up with cold water and jumping in.
