And the most noteable thing to happen so far is a nasty case of the Barrow crud.
Sorry I haven't gotten back to you, Floyd, but almost every waking moment not spent working has been spent coughing, wheezing, sniffling and sneezing. I haven't had many waking moments, most of my time has been spent sleeping. I think I'm over the worst of it so I should be feeling adventurous shortly.
My understanding is that it's been quite the rainy summer here. I've seen plenty since getting here 8/6. There's been a few really nice, sunny, warm days. Good walking days, as much as I felt like walking in the midst of being sick.

The version going around this year is some really bad stuff! Probably the worst I've seen in years. The bad part for a lot of folks has been that it wouldn't let go, and even when it seemed over with they had lingering side effects for 2-3 weeks. I just simply got knocked on my rear for 4-5 weeks and a month later I'm still not really recovered yet.
Anyway, the prediction for the rest of this week is less drizzle, but not necessarily much sunshine. That's pretty good for August. Give me a call when your up and at 'em!
I've had the Midwest crud for about a month now, but its not caused by a virus. My stupid allergies have been kicking my butt l with all of the ragweed pollen in the air right now.
How is it up there for allergy sufferers?
I thought I was getting sick, turns out I was just bored.
