Everyday this week is a little bit hotter. 97 yesterday and 101 today here at my homebase.
Yesterday I took a 22 mile bicycle ride in the morning and thoght I would stop at the boat for a few minutes. I got sidetracked and waxed most of the starboard side of the hull. Even though that only took about an hour, I was really hot by the time I started the last 5 miles from the marina home. Someone said that I looked pale. I drank some water and started home. It was not as bad as I thought it would be except for the one mile climb. It is always nasty! I got home and hydrated well and felt a lot better.
I spent most of the morning inside today and went down to the boat for a short time. It was still hot down there even though the thermometer only said 88. Took a walk down to the state park docks tonight. A light breeze was blowing and it felt comfortable. Lots of people hanging out on the beach and in the water.

Had a home recording of 104.5 for about an hour yesterday, wednesday. Verified that it was accurate by checking with weather underground that has a recording station nearby. It hovered around 103.5 for a couple hours either side of the recorded high. With little to no breeze needed to do the islands routine, all tasks completed by noon, then a cool drink sitting in the backyard shade reading. Today will be much cooler just 100 +/-1.
