June 16, 2014. Ridgeland, Ms. The Weather.

It is hot here in Mississippi. Today was 92 degrees. Texas was even worse at 95. Ken has observed that he does not even sweat at this temperature as he has become accustomed to the heat. Normally we are not in the south during the four hot months but this year we will be in Texas until mid July and it will be hot. Since the end of December, Ken and I have been in warm air. The coolest we have felt has been 70 degrees. Ken thinks he might need to wear long johns in Nova Scotia. I looked at the forecast for this week in Western Head and it will not get to 70 and the nights 50. Unfortunately, our light silk underwear has been stored so he will be forced to wear winter underwear. Perhaps by the time we arrive the temperature will hit 75 and maybe even 80. The only way to survive in the heat is to stay indoors or swim. Fortunately, the air conditioning works well. People here walk early in the morning. I love the swimming pool at 90. You do not freeze coming out. We have become to feel normal at 85 degrees. We will freeze in Nova Scotia when we first arrive but we will get used to it. I just wear my wool socks!!
