And since it is summer, there will be no fruit allowed in any beer. You want fruity? Get a drink with an umbrella in it! Grill is already fired up and we are grilling burgers, brats, summer sausage, and even some pineapple. Beer chicken for those who don't care for real meat. May even throw on a few redfish since tropical storm Cindy sent so many our way. So come grab a drink, a plate, and then relax out back in a hammock on the deck.

For those that are complaining they have to work, we have your solution as well. On our big screen in the patio, we are streaming the CFPB YouTube channel, showing all their great videos. So, clearly qualifies as a work function and CE credits will be offered for tose with certifications.

We have been in the 50's degree range all day...nice start to summer. I will have a Brandy Manhattan with a large cherry in honor of summer fruit. Someone pass shots to those watching the CFPB videos, it's Friday after all.

We've cooled down to 102 today - a relief from the 110-115 range we've had all week. Next week high 80's. Get out the sweatshirts.

Right with you mtngrrl on high of 102 after being 110 all week. Unlike your 80's, we are only cooling down to the 90's.. You must be right up the hill from me.

A truck driver friend drove through Needles, CA earlier this week and snapped a photo of the temperature reading on the ag station at the state border: 126 degrees.

The door was open so I thought I'd come in and make myself a drink.

Bombay, dry, up with three olives.

Stay off the metal bleachers when it warms up that much.

Inside my office I'm wearing a shirt, summer sweater, and fleecewear vest. I have to go outside to warm up! Fortunately, the temperature in here is perfect for a frozen marguerite!

I had no idea it was back until I saw a display of Zima at the store the other day and about wet my pants laughing. All I could think was, "What? Because high school wasn't enough?"

You have no idea. Tina and I use to ride Joker and Hosea through the Scruggs property, chasing deer, wearing Santa Hats and singing Zima Bells laugh!!!!!

Oh the memories of sitting on truck tailgates in the middle of a pasture drinking Zimas with Jolly Ranchers. Such simple times when I was definitely 21 and able to drink legally. (Just in case I ever run for office)
