It is $&^%%^$ Hot
It is hot.
Well the backyard is an oasis. Boombox playing reggae, while I’m sipping Sun Tea in the shade.
and for the purists.
and when the sun goes down we’ll serve iced corona w/lime
With the beer so cold, we’ll go to that One Particular Harbor.
Stay Thirsty my Friends… 🙂
My brother lived in Key West for 13 years (he is in Jacksonville now). He had a commercial fishing license. We had a small 18 footer. We officially named the Leaky Hull. We would fish the Tides and the Full Moon.
We anchored on Sauder Channel and caught Snapper till we were full to the gunnels.
At daylight we head in.
And we head to Captain Tony’s. We would often see Jimmy Buffet in those days, sometime around 81, as all those days run together. We sat at the bar. Mr. Buffett preferred a booth. We would nod when he walked in and he would nod at us. We were locals. Sunburnt brown as only men that fish in the open and in the hot sun get.
One 9am Morning, Me and my brother were really tying one on. We had a great catch. And as we were pouring each one down, My Brother who was in the Navy, would yell, “It’s 5 o’clock somewhere”
Ya know I always thought Mr. Buffett should have sent us some royalty checks. 🙂
One of these days, I’m going back home… to the ocean.
My friend Roscoe, you dream of the east ocean and I of the west. someday. Though this video doesn’t quite fit this blog I still love this song. 😀
Yup, the summer heat is coming… 95 yesterday here. I dampened down the panting dogs and hit the swing.
It’s about 95 degrees in the afternoons down here. I’m hoping I can get a good bit of veggies out of the garden before the scorch days of summer kick in. My wife hit the u-pick-it farm this week. We’ve been canning stuff for two days now. She’s threatening to go back for round two in a couple days. With any luck, maybe she’ll make some of her world famous stuffed zucchini this weekend.
When I first got out of the army, I went to stay with my mother in miami for a short while….themoment I stepped out of the plane the humidity hit me like an oven….and that was inside the terminal…. 🙂 I do not think that my aging body could withstand that kind of humidity anymore. I will admit, however, to having a high old time there! My first visit to the beach, I didn’t wear any flip-flops….I ouched ooched eee, yaaaa’d it in a hurry to the car….I am with Chelo about the west coast…I can understand how he feels!

This is how it feels here…………it’s 105 and that’s underwater!!!!
😥 😥 I can’t wear heels cuz they get me stuck in the melted pavement !!! And yes I can’t breatheeee..wish there was at least a tiny bit of humidity but they save the water tanks for July-August.
I finally stopped sweating. Unscrewed the cap off of Dinner.
Now I’m going to bed.
Will be moving the Hospital again early in the morning.
Good night all and Sundry.
FUck climate change, it is Global Warming.
Ya Know I get really tired how Fox News changes the Language and we all just go along with it, so as not to upset the excitable Teabaggers. Fuck them.
Maybe i need a room temperature shower and more cold drinks. I think I am hot and grumpy.
