We had electric blankets for really cold nights. I too prefer a cold pillow. I never realized why until I read your comment.<BR/><BR/>The temperature is down a little today but it is still very humid. We had nearly an inch of rain overnight. The garden is happy.<BR/><BR/>W., one old theory about the star called Sirius and <I>la canicule</I> was that when Sirius rose with the sun in July it added enough heat to cause hot weather on Earth. I guess that has been debunked by modern science.Ken Broadhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04430899802705818716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-1153933944607642232006-07-26T19:12:00.000+02:002006-07-26T19:12:00.000+02:00Thanks, Evelyn.

It sure is hot here, and the storms they predicted for today seem to be taking their time and may not materialize until tomorrow.<BR/><BR/>We had 35º - that's 95ºC - here today.

We had cots set up beside the octupus-like furnace in our basement. I was scared of the furnace, but couldn't sleep in my bedroom which was in the attic actually (all of our bedrooms were up there- no heat in the winter, but quite cosy since we had lots of quilts to sleep under.) I still prefer cold pillows....<BR/><BR/>Ah those good old days! <BR/><BR/>It's a good thing that you have ac in your car so that you can show us more photos of places we've never seen. Bon courage, it's sure to cool off before too long.Evelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10778535302848508224noreply@blogger.com
