A Tropical Heat Wave

My bedroom last night got pretty warm and not in a good way.

It's one hundred plus degrees and the heat pump for the main house has given up. A ceiling fan and a portable fan made sleeping possible--if not exactly comfortable.

My heart goes out to those in other parts of the country who have been without electricity during this heat wave.

Fortunately, we have two added rooms to the main house (one of which is my office) that are cooled and heated by a separate heat pump which is still sending out cold air....cross my fingers.

I now have a greater admiration for our ancestors who got through hot summers and cold winters before the blessing of today's modern equipment.

Dreaming of Iceland.
