Yesterday was rough. Really rough. NO, not because of the heat, although that
was no picnic either. I got in the left lane on the Interstate where everybody
with everybody driving below the speed limit, then exited right into a 4-way
stop, got stuck in a traffic circle where nobody would yield, and finally had to
wait behind somebody who refused to turn right on red.

You know, a normal Oklahoma driving experience.

Oh yeah, the heat yesterday. Summer is back. The moose out front should have told
ya.

So thanks to our previously Tocked about summer swoon (TM), we get to acclimate
to the heat all over again!
