Good Evening,

It was a record breaking day with temperatures reaching into the lower 100s! We reached 101 out at the Westover Air Reserve Base matching the hottest day in July. We crushed the daily record of 97 with ease.

Things will be cooler tonight with readings falling into the middle 60s by morning. However tomorrow will be another very warm day with highs back into the 90s. It will be muggy tomorrow too. A front will bring much cooler and drier weather for Sunday. Highs will be back into the 80s with dew points in the 50s. That will feel really nice! By the way if your heading to the beach this weekend the weather should be great to be out by the water both tomorrow and Sunday.

Have a great night!

Marley, Mason and Mark came over tonight but we stayed inside. Too hot to go outside.

Actually, Marley came with an agenda......

She wanted to bake. I hate baking almost as much as I hate crafts - LOL!

She wanted to make "pasties" and she made up the recipe in her head. She mixed flour, sugar, and water, rolled it out, cut it in half and put honey in one, and shredded carrots in the other (!!) and then folded them. We baked them in the oven.

She had fun making them and then had us all try a piece. When she tried it she said they were terrible (they really were). Mark said they were almost good, Baba said it was tasty and sweet, and Big Baba said "Schmeckt gut" - German for tastes good (he has said that so much over the years that we have all taken to saying it!)
