The Heat is On

Summer has come to the Gulf Coast. It is hot and steamy today. True Houston weather. The weather I remember as a child growing up here. I can remember hanging out with friends in high school in the summer, driving around with the sticky air giving no respite even at night. You are so happy to have sleeveless cotton shirts and shorts in this climate. Who cares what the thighs look like. It is all about comfort. I stuck my foot in the pool tonight and should have jumped in. It felt good but I was consumed with getting the tiki torches I just bought out in the yard for a test. I was on a mission to simulate the tropical jungle theme for real in the back yard.
