Portland was hot today. As I write this at 8pm it is still 89 degrees outside, and I am having a smoothie for dinner. Highs in the mid-90s may not mean much to you East Coasters, but is reminding me of the heat wave we had last summer the week that Lucy was born. Of course, thanks to her battle with jaundice, we got to spend some of that week in that nice (if expensive) air conditioned hotel known as Good Samaritan Hospital. Thanks again for that, Lu.
But back to this year's hot weather. After a wet wet May and June we now have something new to complain about! Shaggy set up a fan + AC + tarp contraption that has been doing a pretty good job of keeping the house cool, but this afternoon Lucy and I decided to take a jaunt downtown to play in the Salmon Street Springs Fountain.
I'd say she was more observant than gleeful, though there were a few smiles to be had. In any case, when we got back home the house suddenly felt much cooler in comparison.
