Well, it was quite a day.

Records temps all over SoCal.

Record electrical usage.

Made it to 97F at the old boat yard, which for all practical purposes,
is at the beach.

119F at Woodland Hills, an L/A suburb. it was an all time record.

First time I've used the pool in several years.

Trust me, it was a good place to be.

Wood working will have to wait.

One thing I can say, would rather have it hot than cold.

Still remember trying to get to work one morning when it was -19F.

Don't ever want to experience that again.

In sunny Los Osos, CA it made it up to 72 yesterday.
