Right behind ya.

Got a scorcher going on here lately.
Weve had a crazily cool April and early May, with highs in the 60s and low 70s when low 80s are normal.  But now we're getting into the good hot stuff!

Aquatic therapy is awesome.  One of the many reasons I love having a pool.

Speaking of which, it's time to go jump in the pool.

Weather here today is perfect, as usual. 

Or as utee calls it, "too cold".

Managed to get out 3 times since we have been in Maine, but the weather has been far from perfect for golf.

Well, I've spent a couple decades abusing my hearing, so it's probably related to hearing loss.

Might see an audiologist to get tested.  Or you might have to see your primary first, depending on your insurance and/or how the audiologist operates.  I think (don't quote me on this) if someone has tinnitus due to hearing loss, the way it's treated is they get hearing aids.

We may hit the 90's for the first time late this week.  We've had some cooler than usual, less humid weather that has been nice, but the evenings and mornings are cooler than I like for this time of year.

Pool is open, but water temp is still at 70 degrees.

jg doesn't get in water under 80 degrees --- so Memorial Day weekend may be a dry one for me.  Dry as in no pool, not dry as in no beer.

Our pool gets to 88-90 now, with no energy aside from the sun. Kinda crazy, but 88 feels really good when it's 93 and the dew point is 76 (like today).

I want it to stay cool.  Headed to the Smokeys in a couple of weeks, and I want to have a fire going in the evenings in the cabin we rented.

You should be A-Ok for that activity in the evenings.  Probably still in the 60's at night in the East.

Yeah, my insurance doesn't require it, but I'll probably wait until my annual and bring it up with my doctor anyway.

Back is really tight/sore. Saw the doctor on Friday and he said to give it another 2-4 weeks. I start PT tomorrow so that will be good. This is about 25% of the hardware (couldn't get it all - bones are too strong).
