Yesterday, the day known as Sunday, afternoon, my nephew known as Jason emailed me the screencap from his phone, you see here.
The temperature in Anacortes, the town where Jason's Fidalgo Drive-In is located.
The temperature in Phoenix, the town in Arizona near where one of Jason's favorite aunts lives.
The temperature in Wichita Falls where everyone's favorite uncle lives.
And Lynden, the town in Washington where the Slotemaker Jones family eventually settled, after coming to America from Holland.
As you can see, it is a little HOTTER in Arizona and Texas than my old Washington home zone.
If I am remembering correctly I have only returned to Washington, from Texas, thrice during the summer months.
When you get acclimated to 100 degree plus days, and then suddenly find yourself where the outer world is chilled into the 50s, it is jarring. I remember being in Washington, summer of 2008, and pretty much shivering the entire month.
I've no current plans to be in Washington this summer...
