Our in-the-shade backyard thermometer has hit 110 the past two days. Even with two air conditioners and two swamp coolers, it was 87 in our living room. My daughter, grandson, and I have been spending most of the afternoons and early evenings in our bedroom where the space is controlled and the ac works well. Rog has good ac at work, thank goodness.

I know we live in a so-called desert, the Banana Belt of Colorado, but this is way above average!
