Yes, another blazing HOT and HUMID day awaits us. I am as tired of it as you are. Especially as I got my Gulf Power Bill Friday. WOW. But worth every penny.
Thank you to Mindi for taking on the new SURF facebook page. I told her she could take her time hooking it up and then run with it. As soon as she has it up and running, I'll link the blog to it. For those of you that have cells that Internet, I love facebook for that up to the minute stuff.
The Gulf remains dreamy. There just isn't anywhere cool to escape too. Even the water is more than bathtub warm. We tried escaping to the pool yesterday, when the heat index hit 119, but the pool water was 98 and felt less like a chill spot and more like cannibal stew. But the company was good.
BP intends to start the kill shot today. We'll see how that goes.
Beyond that, it was a quiet - albeit- crowded weekend at the beach. Tourist were surprised to spot sharks. Hey, it's their ocean. We don't keep them in a jar somewhere. One lady squealed like a stuck pig when she was touched by a small school of bait fish. I thought she was going to jump right out of her suit. They were just looking for shade. "OMGosh" "It's a FISH!" Giggle....
And here's a great story from CNN. Just a cool story that shows the power of the currents in the GOM. http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2010/07/28/pkg.backpack.lost.cuba.wwl?hpt=T2
Weather in the Atlantic is perking up, or down, depending on your view of the whole hurricane season.
So there ya have it. It's hot, slow, and sticky.
Is it muscadine jelly season yet?
You're welcome, Carol! The Facebook page is up and running :-)
