I don't prefer it, but got my roots planted here. I'd like to move to TN/GA border area but wife won't leave. San Diego area would be nice too, but I couldn't live in CA.

I couldn't deal with 115° sustained like you get in the summer either.

We may hit 115 once or twice each summer and above 110 about fifteen days. Even those days see lows of 85 or so. You would be surprised how nice 85 in the shade is when the RH is 10%. What I can't stand is 80-90 and high RH. Spent a week in Houston one day.

And another one.

Battery in my truck crapped out on me. There goes another $150.

Gonna head to the Valparaiso gun show today, try to sell some stuff.

Too bad you aren’t close. Going to big gun show a couple miles from me. I keep trying to buy stuff but the damn show pricing is always so high.

I may need a second host for a suppressor that is in NFA jail. No hurry because it will be there for months but I’d like to find a good threaded 9 and 22.

117 in Vegas was the worst. I’d rather have -5. Actually felt like I was melting into the sidewalk.
Just slightly better is the 90/90 rh% and temp. Not a fan of drinking my air.

Just ate a half pound of sausage, 4 hash browns, 2 giant biscuits, 2 fried eggs, 2 slices of American cheese and a 12oz glass of orange juice.

Feeling alert, like I need to go chop some wood or something.

It's amazing how good southern food tastes when you eat like a California liberal most of the time.

I always buy the jerky.

That was all I came home with today.

Found my exact gun I was trying to sell on a table, with easily a third of the finish missing, visible rust, and dented grips. Tag said $1100. Asked the guy if he wanted to buy mine (nearly mint, just a wear ring and a single pitmark on the cylinder). Showed it, he said this ones really nice, what you want for it? I said $600. He says I can do $500. I walked.

Another table had a CZ75 Omega suppressor host with tall sights n stuff. I've wanted that gun for a while. $679 on the tag. I asked if they'd take trade. Lady said they would, so I handed over my Colt to be assessed. They said my Colt and $250 for the CZ.

Guess I gotta just keep bumping my sale thread on the local gun forum till I find someone. I'm not giving up a beautifully blued 4" Colt revolver for anything less than $600. It can sleep in my safe till I get that.

Half the days in the summer you gotta chew the air before you inhale.

Humidity sucks.

When I was in San Diego I was blown away by how chilly 75 degrees was if you weren't in the sun. I checked forecast, wore shorts n tshirt, and regretted my decision.

Stupid crowded. And as I was leaving, the line was out the door.

Didn't see any deals. More junk vendor tables than dealers.

I'd recommend you spend the entry fee on range rental at Blythe's instead.

^I wear shorts and a t-shirt when it's 60. I'd figure people accustomed to the bitter cold would be less affected by chilly temps.

Not looking forward to the humidity in the south, but I can't stay in CA when it's this fn stupid, politically. I got used to it in the Philippines and I didn't have AC there.

danm can't catch a break...pretty soon, he'll be seeing the tranny dude again....

in Ca, if both vehicles are making a turning motion at the time of the collision, both drivers are at fault...but since he was coming at you from behind, he's got more fault...see what your insurance co. says, what fault ratio they decide on...shouldn't be 50-50...if it isn't satisfactory, get a lawyer and go after the insurance company of the guy who hit you...
