Hit 104 today, heat index, 92 actual. Miserable heat. I don't do heat at all, so hiding in the house again.

Lots of black clouds overhead all day today, but less than .1" of rain here. I don't even write that down on the calendar. LOL I could use a good shower, about 1/2" would be great! Watering hanging baskets everyday, and when it's in the 90's and sunny, I water morning and evening.
Wow, Mitch, that would have sucked on your propane bill, huh? My grill would have run out of fuel after about an hour. LOL I use the little tanks that you buy 2 for $5 this time of year. Don't even have the large tank, since my grill is a "tailgater", so it's easy to tote along with me when I go camping and riding horses. :)

I didn't even try to analyze the gas bill that month, I just paid it, lol.
Thankfully I only had the grill on medium heat the whole time, I've read where other people forgotten that their grill was on and started a fire.

Always a silver lining, it was just money, not a rebuild of your house!

Well had lots of thunder and lightening and not one drop of rain and 2 of those storms last night .I saw on the consumer show that they have an automatic cut off switch you can buy for grills .You can set the timer for how ever long you want and it is automatic each time you light the grill .
