In other news, I pooped about 5 minutes ago. About the most interesting thing I've done all day other than go to the photo lab and get film done.

Really, so how about some details ...where is Appleton, (cool name), what's it like weatherwise, and geographically, sounds like a farming type of community. You guys grow a ton of apples there?

Well, winter sucks, summers have been rather cold lately. We're about 30 minutes south of Green Bay. It's a city of 80,000 people, so not much farming happening, actually.

That's a good size city. We've been fighting some heat spells over the past few weeks. A few triple digit days. At one point we had the A/C on day and night for three or four days in a row. Typically, we run the A/C maybe ten times a year and rarely at night. What would you call a cold summer?

We've mostly been in the 60s here. I'm more of an 80* and sunny guy than hoodies and fall. Now we're dealing with highs in the low 50s/high 40s, soon to be enveloped in the great Polar Vortex and negative temperatures (-30, etc).

Well let's hope you weren't walking to the lab during the process.

No thank you.
