I’ll take a dry 110 over a wet 95. You can’t hide from the heat in Florida only embrace the swamp and sauna everywhere. I have a work event in Orlando in early July snd I’m cursing whoever decided we gotta go to Florida at the hottest time of the year to a formal work event. I’m gonna be real damp in my suit. I joked about everyone riding bikes to snd from the hotel and the ceo kind of liked the idea… I’m gonna kick myself if that’s now our transportation. Also I gotta go to some contest or event at some point sounds like a blast. ---

Yeah dry heat is much more tolerable. I’m just going from air conditioning to air conditioning. I’m not going to be outside if I can help it. I went to the Jersey shore a few years ago in the summer.🥵 humidity is no joke. It’s like living in a steam room. Yuck. ---

I signed up for check in on Saturday. I may be able to do it Friday as well but I’m not sure if I will get there by 4. As soon as I get there I will try to ask around and see if I can help in any way. ---

Up to about 110, I tend to agree with you. When we start talking 120 “dry heat” kinda loses its charm. I’m debating stopping by Saturday night/Sunday to see what’s up. Hopefully see a few of you there. ---
