Heat Wave - Coming to a city near you!

So I am back from Italy, safe and sound. I'd like to thank Goalie for doing some of the shipping while I was away. He held down the fort very well.

It is no surprise to those in the Midwest as well as the rest of the country that we kind of had a small heatwave this week. In Minnesota it got up to 102 degrees on Tuesday. That may seem like a lot, and you are right. It was was the first time in 5 years since we've had a 100 degree + day.

All that heat can mean a few things... one is that the lake water is sure to shoot up temperature wise, which can please a lot of water sport fans out there. The heat also means another thing, AC! Better get your air conditioning up and running or you could spend a lot of hot nights sweating and wishing you had fixed your AC.

But even if you don't have your AC right and running, there are a few ways of cooling down this summer.

1) Jump in the LAKE!
- This one is easy, no matter how hot it is outside, the lake will cool you off!

2) Eat a Popsicle/Mr. Freeze
- These may be childish and a little weird but nothing cools you off better than a piece of ice.

3) Take a cold shower
- If you are away from the lake and have no other choice, grab a cold shower or even better grab a cold one and a cold shower!

4) Open a fire hydrant
- Actually don't do this, I've only seen it done in the movies.

5) Forget the heat, just go outside and enjoy
- It might be hot, but just a few short months ago we had 2 feet of snow and below 0 temperatures, so stop your complaining and deal with it. It could be worse.

Well that is all from me this evening. Next week we'll probably be talking swim suits, male and female. Don't worry girls, we'll get to the 1-pieces.

Until next time,

Arnie
