Good morning all, got woke up several times last night with cell phone notifications, I figured weather alerts, but when I checked this morning they turned out to be lightning strikes that set off my doorbell camera. So I checked the county rain gauge map and there was rain last night, kinda like a donut, and you can guess what area was in the donut hole. A look outside and not a puddle anywhere. More of the same on the schedule for today, temps still at 110+, lows are still in the 90's. No wonder my electric bill was almost $400 for last month.
Nothing significant going on here, well, a lot of school districts have started school already, and it's still July. I remember when I was going to school in New Jersey, we would start after Labor Day when it was a bit cooler.
Tom, sounds like you had a fun trip. Santa Fe is an interesting place to visit, we spent a few days up there when Pat got married. Gas here is still well over $3.00, but there are a few stations here and in Tucson that are sitting at $2.93. I still can't understand how a chain like Costco or Walmart can sell gas so low in one station and be 20 cents more at another station a few miles away. Competition is weird at times. They say, and I have found, that Walmart has different pricing for the same item in stores that are a few miles apart because of the demands for that item in different neighborhoods.
Getting close to the time to head out for breakfast, got a free day today, maybe get something done on my challenge, it's getting late.
Take care everyone, have a great day....
