Why I Won't Miss Texas

One of the great advantages of my New York/Bolivia trip is getting out of the heat.

Georgetown, Texas, where I live, is currently on a 28 day streak of 90 degrees or hotter. Of course there is no relief in sight. It is supposed to be 100 the next 2 days. The coolest day in the next 10, according to the Weather Channel, 93.

Ugh.

I see little chance of this 90+ day streak ending before it reaches 100 days. Maybe some kind of tropical moisture will give a single day of relief. 100 days would put it sometime toward the end of August I guess. Which means that it could really be more like 125 days.
