Hurlshort Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 I do my exercising as early as possible at this point. Saturday I also finished with the swim portion, so that was nice. I whine during the winter a lot, so I try not to let the heat stop me.
MedicineDan Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 I was in Riverside for work yesterday and it was 117 after I got out after the appointment. Then there's the mask. Ugh. "Not for the sake of much time..."

ComradeYellow Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 I keep 2 liter bottles of Diet Coke handy at all times.

Seriously, though make sure that you get enough water. Coke has caffeine (which is a diuretic )and salt to make you thirsty. Take it from someone that naively thought that it was as good as water and developed a kidney stone. 2 1 I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.

LadyCrimson Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Woke up this morning and from the darkness of the room thought it was something like 6 in the morning. Looked at clock - it was 9:30 in the morning. It's not just California on fire, now. The skies above our house were fairly cleared up the past several days as the fires closest to the Bay Area were largely contained but winds must've changed and it's completely dark/orange glow smoked again from the ones farther away. Seriously looks like a movie with a dark orange filter over everything in our yard, and we're far away. Poor W. Coast. Edit: anyone close to those areas, stay safe.

rjshae Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 Wow, quite the sunset this evening. It was almost like being on another world. I guess that's the one small plus of having the west coast on fire and having all the smoke choking the air. "It has just been discovered that research causes cancer in rats."
