....just another day in the neighborhood here......errands and putz'n..... |^| :) |^|
...heating up fast now....supposed to be in the upper 70's but already 80+degs out there.....cold front later brings in the rain and 60's tomorrow...might see an overnight in the 40's ???......
...clear, sunny 16mph prevailing winds today and temps going to 105 today...
I remember when Jan and I went out to see my Dad one time....we drove down by Palm Desert and had date shakes....it was 116 that day.....felt like the oven door was open....LOL..
Dad had AC but ran the 'swamp cooler' most the time.....kept the place quite pleasant.... :)
...one of our friends had a swamp cooler in his place...it would get so cold we couldn't stand it...had to go outside to warm up!... :D :D

..they normally don't get as cool as AC......and they do work with thermostats too....LOL..........they are super efficient....and cheaper to run...
,,,when I was in the Army at Ft Knox/Ky and Ft Bliss/ Tx, the school brigade buildings all used swamp coolers..

..well the day is winding down now and it's time to chill.... w!w |^| w!w
....sun, clouds, rain, and winds.....kinda a weird weather day... huh...AC's on as it made the 80's and brought the humidity back..
..rainy and 60's tomorrow, and for a few days after...so we'll flip it off.... |^|
...for me it was a good day...an hour's worth of touch painting and installing a towel rack and trim in the bathroom of one unit...a touch of reading...bagged plants for the fish trade tomorrow...negotiated a purchase of a trio of Panda Loaches...put cabinet doors back on new cabinets we got for the deck...I had taken them off to put glass panes in them... Tuesday Tacos with Stan & Barb, Ron & Nancy, and Lucy...
