Countdown... I'm stoked. I woke up at 5am, two full hours before my alarm was programmed! I set a second one for 6am (meant to do that anyway), but couldn't return to the Sandman's lair. I'm wide-eyed and ready.
It was 100 or a bit more yesterday. The forecast says 103-104 today, with "miserable" level humidity - can't wait to get out in it!
For anyone going that's still reading this thread: if you see a old little geezer, with a handful of 20-somethings, some of us with this on our backs, say hey.
