Hopefully it'll be warmer this time. Last year was freaking brutally cold. I'm gonna make sure I can make this one. Just gotta make sure I can get off work.

I think that was in February and it was about 30 degrees with a howling wind. But honestly, I'd much prefer that to it being 103 like it is right now!!

Your nuts. 30* with like a 30mph wind makes it like 5* outside. Couldn't even sit outside and enjoy a cold beer cause you were shivering so much. No thanks. I'll take the 103* and 99% humidity any day of the week. At least at night time I don't have to huddle 6" from a fire to stay warm.
