Yes and no. I LOVE summer and the hot weather and am never ready to let it go. I think it goes back to being a kid and going to school. Summer meant no school and a certain amount of freedom and fall meant school and a loss of that freedom.

I'm not a fan of sweating (outside of exercise), so by August I'm very ready for fall.revbob wrote: ↑11 Sep 2021, 8:11amYes and no. I LOVE summer and the hot weather and am never ready to let it go.

Re: RevBob's Maple Soaked Socialist Paradise
It's 95 and one of the worst rated air qualities in the world here in Denver. I moved out of the great Rocky Mountains and onto the 10th circle of hell.

My sister is probably going to move back to Burlington in the next few months. I'd move there in a cocaine heartbeat except the woman doesn't want to be on the east coast.

She still in Napa?
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Feel free to give her my number if she ever wants to hang out with some cool people. They live down the street and sometimes wave to me.

Denver's air quality was always shit growing up. It rarely got that hot though.
Got a Rake? Sure!

Re: RevBob's Maple Soaked Socialist Paradise
Yeah, it actually got a better for a little while there as general environmentally sound development made headway, but the physical landscape traps pollutants over the city. With the ubiquity of western fires all that smoke and air pollution is just getting trapped. I usually can't even see the mountains anymore through the smoke.
