We have arrived in Otter Lake, in the cool Adirondacks, where it is already 80 at 9 AM, with the high expected of 87. I have a window A/C unit running. We broke down and bought one 3-4 years ago. It was never needed prior to that. It still will be in the 50s-60s at night so tolerable.

Happy Borthday, sj! All good wishes for a fantastic year ahead!
Ooh, enjoy Costa Rica and the Adirondacks, Jess and Laura!
I would like to go somewhere.

You are always welcome to visit me in Otter Lake, Jen! I expect it will cool down some. This is very unusual.
I am so disheartened by the 250 drama and bullshit. 1976 was amazing. I was 22 and partied with an amazing group of friends at a huge party at a river front house that a bunch of them rented in Norfolk. Big VA home with huge balconies. Everyone everywhere was in a state of all out Bicentennial fervor. All ages, all political views, it was just joyous. Everyone sporting their red, white, and blue. We were past Watergate and Vietnam and ready to party.
This could have been a joyous time. And yet.
