No, not really! Not in southern Nevada anyway. Our dog has been limiting himself to one run out to do his bathroom duties; first thing in the morning. Well, I kind of knew what was going on but this?!?!
Yeah, that's the temp of those rocks that fill the back yard. That's 160F or 71C. Well, hell, I wouldn't want to walk on that in my bare feet either! I was expecting something warm but that is just way warmer than I was expecting. Good dog!
I got my shot last Thursday which was supposed to help my spinal nerve problems and I have to say it did change things but that's not to say fixed them! It just kind of moved the pain around a bit. We'll see what they have to say when I can get in to talk with them again.
The Presidential election is about all that's on the news these days and I have to say I'm pretty happy about how it is moving along. I should say I'm originally from Iowa, a Republican state, and even today my wife and I are registered Republicans. Actually that is simply so we can have some voice here. There will be 4 people running for a position in the county government, all Republican, so whoever wins the primary will automatically get the position. There just won't be a Democratic or Independent candidate. It says something about the number of Democrats in the county for sure! ANYWAY, we will certainly be voting for Kamala Harris for President and are, so far, pretty happy with the choice of Tim Walz for VP.
One of my HUGE problems with Mr. Trump is the whole Project 2025 thing. There is some serious crap in that. Things like purging civil servants, pardon everyone in the Jan. 6 invasion of the capital, enact an abortion ban, reverse student debt forgiveness, cut social security, cut Medicare, abolish the Dept. of Education, ban books, attack LGBTQ+ people, end climate protections, deregulate corporations and the oil industry, put immigrants in detention camps and more! OMG! It makes me think that living in another country might be better! Well, I guess that is one way to reduce the number of people who want to move to this country. Shit!
We do have some fun in our lives though. We were going to a supermarket for something the other day and saw this official vehicle.
Can't you just see it in a speeding chase? LOL Well, actually, it was being driven by a couple of the sheriff's civilian helpers. They were apparently helping the supermarket folks with something or maybe just buying donuts for the real cops.
Anyway, that's all the news that's fit to type from around here. Hope you are having as much fun. Keep washing those hands and staying away from the sick folks.
