Hot! Hot! Hot!!!

Okay - it has almost been a week where we are getting triple digist of temperature during the day. This past weekend we had the AC working for us and we let the dogs in to cool themselves off. Normally, though, they are outside dogs and don't come in at all when we work during the day. Now I am getting a bit worried... my dogs are 12 and 17 and not sure how their bodies adjust to the temperature... as you know, dogs don't have sweat glands so they release excessive heat from their tongues. I just want to race home and turn on the AC and let the dogs come in to cool off...

One of our neighbors who don't have AC at home, spent their weekend in their RV (parked in front of their house) because the heat was just so unbearable. Is this real? is this a dream? is this what 'hell' feels like? I often wonder why pictures of 'hell' always involve fire and heat. I guess this is it!!
