Where is everyone

[Joe Breaux]

Everybody out riding? Awfully quiet here recently. It's so damn hot here .We expect 112 to 116 heat index tomorrow..getting too old for that heat.

Dude, I've been too old for this heat since birth!

So, how's things going with you?

[Joe Breaux]

Pretty good. Doing a lot of fishing. But it's getting so hot, we might start going at night.How bout you?

Ain't been doing much, just working around the house and the property. Also been working on a lift gate for my fiancee's Jeep Grand Cherokee. Her's has a lot of rust damage. Just trying to stay busy and stay cool at the same time.

Been out doing some light tree trimming on the UTV.  Especially branches that tear my hat and glasses off as I mow around them on the ZT..  Getting warm and humid here in Michigan.  I don't do well anywhere above 80 degrees or 70% humidity.   Now back in the basement "office" checking in on UTV Board.  😀

[Joe Breaux]

lol  We only get low 70% humidity in January cold fronts...We wake up to 96% every morning ..Last year we actually had Heat index in the 120s for a month.. Its hot down here in the swamp.🥵

[T-boss 410]

I guess it's whatever you are used to. Personally, I don't do well with humidity above 70%, like Alien10 says. I rarely leave the a/c in those conditions.

The wife loves to mow, so who am I to stand in the boss’s way? Bad thing is she gets the zero turn and I get to trim and weed eat. She loves to mow so much I volunteered her to mow a new to the hood neighbors yard in their process of moving here. We will mow their yard most of this year. They have six mowable acres and we have six too. Twelve acres to mow, old age, and 100° temps means I drink a lot of water, Gatorade, and beer. 
Gottta learn to keep my mouth shut when volunteering her yard mowing love!

I work on a ship that travels between Houston, Southern Lousiana, and Florida...miserable all summer. I dont know how you guys manage it. I never seem to find the right balance between staying hydrated and peeing constantly. I have worked asphalt barges in Lousiana in the summer too. 300 degree cargo means the temperatures on deck are even hotter since it radiates through the steel.

Much nicer at home in Maine the other half of the year.

Lol. It takes real men to work outside here in summer. But in January when you guys are snowed in , in 20 below zero..we are wearing shorts!!

Been hating humidity since I was a kid. Just getting worse as the years go by.

We re  night fishing now..too hot to stay on the gulf during day.Hurricane stirred up the gulf, fishing is excellent now

Just finished rebuilding a small deck on a side door.  UTV used as a work and saw station.   Humidity high and 85 degrees.  Very little air movement in the work area.   Done now, both the job and me.  Cool basement office awaits a few hours of nice cool temp.
