My phone said it was 77º at 8am.  I thought, hey, that's sounds perfect to get a few miles in.  I stepped outside and the very fires of hell itself consumed my soul.  My phone is a liar.  Needless to say, this didn't go too well.

Choke!! I met someone from your hometown of Toole. He's a winter visitor that was in my ward. I showed him your blog picture and he said you looked familiar.

77 that would be awesome right now! Unfortunately it was 94 here this morning at 5:15. Needless to say I kept my run nice and easy.

From Tracy on Thu, Jun 22, 2017 at 17:46:25 from 172.58.144.30

But it's a dry heat.

From Burt on Thu, Jun 22, 2017 at 22:48:28 from 70.176.85.97

Rhett - We'll get 77 again. In December.

Tracy - you're a dry heat. I can't think of anything witty to say to follow that up, so I'll leave it at that.
