Wow, I just checked the weather underground site for San Felipe again and it's showing 108.1º and is forecasting 117º. If anybody's interested the
weather station is MMSF. |
It's time for those San Felipe guys from last year to start their journey.
|
Aren't they the same ones taking off from there on the sketchy raft made out of soda bottles?

Yes, John and Rachel have had a few problems getting launched and staying afloat, but are going to attempt leaving on Monday...which is, unfortunately
for them, suppose to be even hotter than today!!!
Whenever I hear that rainy, chill wind blow. I think it may be time to head for Mexico. Tengo que obedecer mi corazon!

Dang, I had to take off the insulated Carhartt® vest this aftenoon and remain in a mere sweat shirt. When I went through Lukeville, AZ three years
ago, the Border Patrol thermometer read, 122.5F while my NIST thermometer read 50C. It was so hot the sun playing on my skin made we wince, and
leaving the window down and having 122F air hit me was painful as hell. When I arrived in laughlin, the thermometers read 100 to 101 at midnight. But
that was in an asphalt and concrete environment. The hotel had a fabulous air conditioner. Two nights for $8.81 total. I'll sleep under my comforter
again tonight.
