    You couldn't have fished that today. Silt is just past the end of Glenwood Canyon. If you had tried, you would have gotten paddled and not in a fun sensuous way...lol. That canyon is about 20 miles end to end. You could have walked the center of the river end to end and not gotten your feet wet! There must have been 200 river rafts on that water. All blue and yellow.

    No, an El Niño has little effect on summer weather in Southern California. The big high pressure area that typically settles in for the summer months overpowers the more subtle effects of the ocean warming. What we have here today is the result of monsoonal moisture coming up from tropical Mexico.

    BTW, we did get a little rain, but not enough to measure with my primitive rain gauge.

    Two components? That makes it more sophisticated than mine, which is a clear plastic tube with a decimal inch scale printed on the side.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Actually, I just use a paper towel with a rock on the corner it. Still two components, huh?

    It's been "cool" for summer here for the past couple of weeks or so. A few hot/humid days sandwiched in here and there but highs have been mostly in the 70's to low 80's and nights down in the low 60's. In fact right now its cloudy and only 66. So, so far so good. Very little of that blazing hot 90's - 100 degrees crap. Already its clearly noticeable that the days are getting shorter and the angle of the sun is changing. But, we still have at least a month to go before it's over but right now we are heading towards third and getting ready to round third and head for the final stretch home..

    Pretty average Summer. A little cooler at night than I remember. Most nights I turn the fan away from me while I sleep this season.

    Don't forget that John's from Noo Yawk. You should have said "Why would anyone want to head towards thoid?"


    And, yes, I can assure you that he really does talk that way; we once had conversation via Echolink.
