Got out the Celestron and did a little star gazing for a while. Nice
and peaceful, spotted some sats - general looking around.


Really nice night - even started seeing some lightning bugs which is a
first for this year.


Glad you like it. it's hotter'n hoemade sin here.

right now it's 79 degrees, no air moving and about 75% humidity.

upper 90's for tomorrow (again)

==================================

What the heck is *hoemade sin*? I can think of a couple things but they
can't be right.

Oh, by the way, it's 76*/95% humidity here in central Fl, just like it is
every night this time of year.

I wouldn't trade it for snow though.


I wouldn't trade our snow for all your giant cock roaches either. ?;^ )

The really big ones are Palmetto bugs. So there. 8)


The really big ones are...really big friggin' cockroaches!

It's been bad for a full week with moisture expected again until the first
of the week.
I haven't lifted a paintbrush since the 18th.

Remember those freaking huge cockroaches called rice bugs in 'Nam?

Ever get hit by one hanging out the side door of a chopper?

At cruise speed?

Never hung out the door. Usually I was prone, with binocs at my eyes,
looking for craters in roads or blown bridges. The engineer's version
of dawn patrol. I loved those flights. Got up as the sun came up and
flew the 25th Division AO. Even got paid flight pay for it.

I spent several years down there, I know what it's all about. When one
landed on my wife's arm and sent her into hysterics, all my attempts
to convince her it was a 'palmetto bug' and not a cockroach fell on
deaf ears!

I got used to them, along with beautiful weather, beaches, fishing,
canoeing, springs, etc. I grew up in western NY and never got used to
the snow and cold!
