Lucky you! We have giant mosquitos here and one actually bruised me yesterday.

I'm Done with Summer!!

I never had either, Susie. Roger said it was the high heat plus the high humidity that caused it. We hardly ever have high humidity.
Are people complaining about summer here? 
Then I've come to the right place!
In Germany – specifically in Lower Saxony – it's been raining since May!!! During our vacation at the seaside in May, it was chilly and started to rain, and it's been raining nonstop ever since!!! We've had 68°F at best. During the short breaks in the rain, we have to encourage the dachshunds to do their business quickly and with dry feet, because they hate rain. We wonder why all this watering is happening... Last year, we completely remodeled our patio and added new furniture. A covered chill lounge with a mini-TV is one of the new highlights, which we've only been able to use a few times since we bought it last year.
It's a real shame.

Isn't it zum heulen???I hope we will get summer here in Germany. It's cold and raining...
Please send us your summer!
oh ow!! I get really bad welts so I hate getting bit!
I was in Vegas(the strip) in May and the weather was beautiful. I barely brought a sweat outside. We hit the pavement averaging 8 miles a day! That must be the pleasant month! I have heard lately it is unbearable. We have high humidity, and it is warm here. We haven't got to 100 yet, but we hit 95.
In May it is beautiful!!!
Just call me Goldilocks. I don't want the weather too hot or too cold. I want it "just right", a.k.a. fall or spring. Fall is my favorite season. I don't like hot, sweaty, drippy, icky grouchy me in the middle of a heatwave. I have long ago determined I would have never made it in the pioneer days wearing those long dresses and petticoats. I would have gone mad!

I'm in Finland and last week we were at 32ºC (89ºF) , with a house of double wall and all kind of material to keep warm the house during the winter, it was like oven, so we ended up sleeping in a tent in the yard, and it was cooler, especially during the night, the temp. went down to 18ºC (64ºF)I´m with you, Susie!! it´s very hot in Portugal too. We will have 38ºC on Sunday, it makes me want to leave to a place cooler
winter. I'm so glad that basically this week will start our early autumn (raining days, cooler temperatures, and cooler nights)
