Hi folks, <br>
<br>
I hope none of you have melted yet, but it could still happen this
week. It looks like every day is going to be at least 100, and the
temperature won't dip below the mid 70's at night. Be sure and be safe
if you have to go out in the extreme heat. Drink plenty of fluids,
(not alcoholic ones), wear cool clothing and a wide brimmed hat to
create your own shade, and don't forget the sunblock. Better still,
just take a siesta during the middle of the day, and rest up to do what
you've got to do outside either early or late. It may still not be
cool, but at least it won't be dangerously hot. We got tires and a
battery for our 4 wheeler this weekend and my daughter was riding it
when she noticed water running across the ground right next to our
front yard. She came and told me and I traced it back to the source,
all the way back to our water meter. It was standing full of water and
water was just gurgling out of it. At least it wasn't a break in our
part of the line this time. We had that experience several months ago,
and I know my husband didn't want to hear that again. It looked like
the metal had actually cracked all the way across on the bottom side
right under the gauge. I know I've heard people talking about how the
dry conditions we've been having are causing home foundations to crack,
etc. I guess it's possible that it caused this too, as the meter
wasn't that old. <br>
