Like many others, we are having a major heat wave.
We were in Chico on Monday and here was the temperature at 5:30 p.m.
Some of the Melanchuks came out to see us off and see what 115 feels like!
We drove to McDonald's on our way to get a smoothie from the drive-through.
A darling girl helped us!
Tuesday was no better. It was already this hot by 1:30 p.m.!
And just kept getting hotter!
I'm sure that contributed to our A/C quitting and our needing to call a repair place. Tender mercy: They were able to come in one hour, and it was an easy 15 minute fix! It did take us about 12 hours to get the house cooled down though so I opted to sleep downstairs on a sofa that night.
Then to make matters worse we are getting smoke from a nearby fire in two neighboring counties. We know some people who have had to evacuate and it is 0% contained. Here is a picture this morning of the sun obscured by smoke and our air quality report is hazardous!
Here's how we survive:
Lime juice bars, Cherry-Pineapple popsicles, and Raley's sherbet Mixed Berry and Meyer Lemon.
We'd be happy to share these with anyone brave enough to stop by!
