Hotter than a Fox in a Forest Fire...

Well This is an exression that dad uses to describe a hot day - today is hot in Freddy Beach, It's not even 11am and the Feels like scale is at 34 degrees - and it's on it's way to 40. Last year the upstairs of our house would have been a sauna and I would have to retreat to the basement to get any sleep, but this year we got an air conditioner, it's working overtime today, and the only reason I'll be missing any sleep will be thinking about the Power bill.

I Love Summer, I love the heat (Except at night when I'm trying to sleep) and this coming weekend always seems like the last of the real summer weekends for some reason - We've got our first rugby game, against the Belleisle Rovers who are a great team and the game should be very entertaining - The weather network is calling for 25 and sunny, so it will be a good day for fans as well, if they enjoy sunshine, beer and Rugby.

Sophie is enjoying her first Summer, she has taken to the water without incident, so much so that we now have two pools on our back deck to beat the heat.

The expression in the title isn't quite complete, the fox is missing an adjective, but at least now it's suitible for family reading - if you want to know the rest, ask Malcolm -it's funny and makes more sense.

Enjoy the heat - It will be winter soon enough.
