Agreed!

I am looking forward to the warm weather toward the end of the week, but to each their own.

I'm not saying that he has to think like me
I'm just trying to understand what he enjoys about cold weather, especially that cold (4F)

because you can dress up for cold, but naked is as far as you can go for hot. Here I actually want to be outside and do things, but in SA I just want to be inside in the a/c. I'm definitely going to be working on a move when I get back. It'll take a while, but I belong in a place like this.

Does your entire family feel the same way?

What you say reminds me a lot to several people I knew in Missouri that were happy as hell in Oct-Nov when we had our first few days with Highs in the 50s-60s. (I thought they were crazy)

So what temperature do you actually consider perfect?
What’s the warmest that you can handle before it starts bothering you?

For me perfect is 60F-85F and the hottest before it bothers me I think is 95F.
That’s one reason I’m glad I moved to San Antonio.

I love the hot weather! It's a pain to put on several layers of clothing just to go to the mailbox...I love slipping into my flip flops or sandals, throwing on my shorts and a t-shirt here in SA beginning in April. Once I'm cold, I stay cold...it takes me forever to warm-up. I feel miserable, like the windy cold day today. I am a school teacher and standing out on the playground (bundled up) still stinks.

Man, I've been so busy I haven't been able to keep up with you folks!

rd, sounds like you're really enjoying the trip!

Went fishing ALL day saturday - very nice way to spend the weekend!

100 degree weather is so much fun! For me anyway.

I'm starting not to mind the weather so much but I do wish we could get some rain. I don't really care for water restrictions.

Note to self- start doing your exercise videos so your rolls don't hang out of your summer clothes.

Right now I predict that there will be a wreck on 281 going North after the zig-zag by the airport and before Nakoma.

I was driving up doing about 55 on the 2nd turn of that zig-zag by the airport
as soon as I could see the strip of 281 where the airplanes fly over, there was a police car flashing his lights on the right shoulder behind a firetruck.

For some mother......... reason ALL the cars in ALL the lanes went from 55-60 to about 15MPH just "to see if they could see the problem, solve it in their head and go back to help them"

Man, why is it that people on the left lane slam on the breaks to see what's happening on the right shoulder?
