The day our giddiness went off the charts.

Why are we smiling like fools?  Because it's 78 degrees outside and we're about to ride our bikes to the hotel on campus for dinner.  On July 2nd, people!  We've had an extraordinary run of moderate weather which has turned everyone in town into what Jackson Browne once called 'happy idiots.'  I LOVE happy idiots. So joyful! So effusive! So.... silly!  While riding our bikes the 7 or 8 blocks to dinner,  the hubs kept yelling, "Omigod, it's just like vacation!" Well, I don't know about that. But, it's sure as heck not like Kansas in July.

Being from Illinois, I hear ya. The weather report on the local news last evening said it was 76 degrees out and last year this time it was 96. Windows open, large window fan blowing in fresh cool air. Love it!
