sssmith,

I am back in upstate N.Y. for the summer but its been very hot and humid in July and part of August here. Seems to have cooled down some now. I hear from friends in TV that it is unbearably hot and oppressive this summer. Heat index of 107-110 today in TV.

If we think back to when we were kids, I can remember many summers in Chicago that were up around 100 degrees for many days in a row. That was not unusual there for July and August. I think its a trade off. You get about 2 to 3 months of ungodly heat in Florida and a good 7 months of cold and gloom in the east and midwest. All a matter of personal preference. Im thankful I have the best of both worlds but I do miss my TV friends and activities alot!
