Finally, the first day of July will be below 100°F. More importantly, the dew point will be a bit lower as well and we can get back out from under the AC and do some shooting. While inside (I've been out only twice in the past ten days) I have been covering security issues, checking the archives for theft and working on designing curio items for our stores on Zazzle. June will close out a very good month of sales.
While it will be nice to be out again, there is a doctor's appointment to attend to. But, it is one that is a must so all things considered, it's not that bad going into. It's the answers I get coming out of it that sometimes give me a bit of pause.
Also in the heat downtime, I took the Union Pacific Test identifying the types of railcars. Aced It!! When I was off from college between my freshman and sophmore year, I spend one full day unloading a boxcar filled in brown paper wrapped boxes of jell-o. If my memory serves me well, I think there were 96 boxes to a wrapped bundle. The problem: the car was stacked from floor to ceiling front to back. Unbelievable numbers of jello-boxes. To this day, I have a box of jello-o in my pantry just to remind me how small those little boxes are and every time I see a box car on the rail, I think about that box of jell-o and will not eat jell-o to this day. When I went home at night I smelled like strawberry for a week and that was after shower after shower. I will not even go down the jell-o isle in any grocery store. None!
