    All's I can say is that it is 96 outside, reminiscent of a Charm City July afternoon -- and it's comfy in here.
    And that same sun that's making it kinda sultry outside is generating the juice to make it pretty darned nice inside.

    Speaking of Charm City.
    102f right now & the humidity is thick enough to wear.

    This pic is from several years ago from my house in Seattle. No AC in the house. Note the indoor temp.

    Ahh, Baltimore. When did it get the name "Charm City" and why? Went to Camden Yards a couple of times since I arrived in this fair land about 35 years ago, and thought it was one of the best ball parks I have ever been to. Better that getting ear damage from the pressure changes due to the wind in Three Rivers stadium in Pittsburgh at any rate.

    My most lasting memory, however, is when I spent about a six month period commuting on Amtrak from my home west of Philly to DC and the train invariably got stuck in the tunnel in Baltimore, cell service ceased and all the horrible little Arthur Anderson consultants started screaming "Hello, can you hear me?".

    Love the way you hid the "Baltimoron" witticism.

    I'll probably be blamed for our community power outage... It's funny if I'm outside working, heat and humidity don't really affect me. Granted, I'll likely drink a gallon of Liquid IV infused water every hour, but inside after a refreshing shower, I'm not going to sweat if I can help it. Thermostat is currently set at 69. I'm loving it!
