It is still "cool" in June in South Louisiana. August is when the heat kicks in.

I think I saw the same seven letters in the second photo at Mardi Gras before......
I can't wear anything wool. I get itchy and hives. If I was ever tortured all they would need to do was to put a wool sweater on me, I and I would divulge any and all secrets that I know.
Yesterday (Saturday) I was outside for several hours raking and blowing leaves. I had on shorts, a t-shirt, and a sweatshirt It was 42 degrees F outside. I was warm as toast. I saw neighbors on walks bundled up like they were trekking across the Antarctica. When it get's 80 degrees and humid here in Michigan, it sucks the life out of me and it takes extreme effort just to cut the grass without passing out.
I don't get hives but I do get itchy from wool, I once bought a wool Navy uniform top, it was just big enough for me to get it on and I loved the way it looked so I wore it like a shirt for a gig one night, first and LAST time I ever wore it.
Blizzard of 78 documentary someone videotaped from TV, pretty interesting. Harvey Leonard still does the weather in MA.
Bite thy tongue!
Blizzard of 78: We had a gig that evening and when we got home, the Leslie 147 stayed sticking out of in the trunk.
In December of 1978, the company that I worked for relocated to a new city between Christmas and New Years. I moved during a snow storm, the moving truck got stuck in the snow outside my new place. It was a bitterly cold winter with lots of snow. I saw a lot of cars and trucks in the ditch along a highway that I used to regularly travel that year.
The so-called Japanese Current is a water current that flows from the warm Pacific waters off of Japan throughout SE Alaska including Sitka, and it keeps our weather fairly temperate. Think green old growth trees, muskeg, and fairly moderate winters. But @Morrighan you have given me a good Christmas idea-- maybe a cute shawl for Carey for Christmas!
I recently saw a PPS program about the tribes of Alaska. Can’t remember the name of it... I love this type of programming.

How about a shawl kit. She can make her own, maybe even go on to sell them on the internet.

There are sheep in Ireland. A great deal of them. Shawls and wraps?

Sorry gang, Carey is a good home keeper but knitting and sewing has never been in her interests. I'm afraid I'm going to have to look at something like L.L. Bean or Lands End for her shawl... or maybe just a big oversized sweater?
