Re: It’s getting hot boys and girls

106 today. I could only get the place cooled down to 70 this AM.
I can usually only get it down to 10 degrees above the temp at 7 AM when I close everything up for the day.
76 when I got home this PM.

Tell me about it! About 2 weeks ago I bought new belts for Otis just had not put them on, well yesterday coming home my A/C belt started squealing at the traffic light a half a mile from home so I shut it off and came on home.

Today I had a meeting in Oakdale and forgot about the belt until it was almost time to leave, so I thought just tighten it real quick and swap all three out tomorrow. It had other ideas....

Well at just about the same traffic light I heard it snap and unravel with a thud, so I pulled over and luckily it shot over into the drivers side fender well without derailing the other two, Needless to say that was one hot ride there and back.

Guess what I'm doing in the AM before it gets hot??

Re: It’s getting hot boys and girls

almost forgot...

Sheepdip sighting today!!!

Oakdale on hwy 120 approx. 11:30am

parked head in, on the east side, at something or another and sons, looked like a feed store or farm supply of some kind

I was driving the motorhome with Mrs. Bee's wagon in tow so photo op came and went before I could do anything

I actually spotted a bear along one of the Yosemite park roads last night, Mrs. Bee said unh uh, and I said uh huh and spun the car around so the fam could see it

bad pic but not a bad spot for the old man while driving a twisty two lane goat trail
