Living in Palm Springs has its considerable high points, but during the months of June, July and August, we are reminded of one of its very, very low points. THE HEAT! The only thing that amazes me though, is that every year, we all complain and we hear the weather reports explain about the extreme heat we will be experiencing that day. Of course we are! We live in the desert! Why is everybody so amazed by it?
Since we moved her in 1990, there has not been one summer that wasn’t hot. The only 
thing that changes, is the level of humidity. The hottest day I ever had the pleasure of experiencing had a temperatue of 124 degrees fahrenheit. We all lived through it and went on with our lives. So, now when I see the little display above my rear view mirror in my Jeep read 112 or 116, I think, “At least it’s not 124!” Sometimes I even throw caution to the wind and live on the wild side by leaving my windows down and having the nice hot air tunnel itself around my face and hair.
So I say bring it on! Let me know when I can bring out my surprised facial expression because of the weather in Palm Springs. Yes, it’s hot and I love it.
