I don't know why it has to be this hot while TL and the kids are here. Of course, I didn't want rain everyday, but still .... did it have to go immediately to being this hot? Yesterday was miserably hot, and we were glad for the moments of air conditioning respite from the heat. A few of the museums had a/c, and boy, did it feel good. You see, many businesses here don't have a/c, because this is generally mild climate. When I was last at these places, they did not have it, so I was fully aware of my good fortune.
For most of you, this wouldn't seem, on paper (or computer screen), to be hot. 90-92°, admittedly isn't awful, but remember this is very high 6000 to 7500 feet, so the atmosphere is very different. Even Terri and the kids, used to the heat and oppressive humidity of Florida, are suffering. Part of their problem is being unaccustomed to the altitude. But trust me when I say that the heat is very intense. We got home, totally washed out, and spent last night trying to revive ourselves.
I'll be back later to let you know more about our adventures, but not just now. I'm still trying to recover! They will be leaving tomorrow afternoon to go to Albuquerque to spend a few days with TL's dad, and I'll catch up after they have gone.
Hasta maƱana!

9 hitchhikers with something to say:
Let's see. I'm glad you're having a good visit. I'm glad it's not raining. I'm glad you're doing fun things. I'm sorry it's so hot. :o)
Summer cant make up its mind this year it seems.
...and I've been a little chilly here in Jersey. I have to admit, my a/c has been running too much. Love those rainbow pics! --Cheryl
Sounds like you are having a blast, even in the hot weather. Take care.
Keep cool and enjoy. Waiting to hear more when you have rested. :)
I can totally relate to how TL and the kids are feeling. I remember when I came to visit I was sooooo tired and it was mainly due to the altitude. Enjoy your last few hours with them...I know you are really going to miss them. Can't wait to see pics.
Evreyone - TL and kids left this afternoon, as planned. It has been quite a week, full of good times and exhausting events! I'll begin to get caught up soon, with both reading your blogs and posting about our adventures here. Thanks for stopping by.
Now that they are gone, I'll bet the temps cool!
It is almost as if you feel the heat more when ppl visit, as if you are feeling it for them, eh?
Thank goodness for air condition!!!
