Default Finally Fall!!
Well yesterday in the Dallas Texas area we reached a high of 104 heat index was 112. (it was a fun ride home) It was the hottest day of the year. And in true Texas fashion today's high will be in the 70's, tomorrow's low 56 roughly half of yesterday's high. Well at least they are claiming that we have seen the last of the high temps. It will only be in the 90's this weekend. Yippee Fall has arrived. (yes I'm being sarcastic)

right!! And my rauder will outrun an R1! lol. I wish we had weather like that. It is suppose to get to low 80's though after today. Not looking forward to the cold. Sadly the very brisk mornings are constant reminders of what is to come.

Thank God it's finally cooling off! Yesterday it was 80 during the day and then it dropped to 48 around midnight.
