Did I miss something?Why are you there? That actually looks a lot like the view from Taft California where my parents live.When it was over a hundred degrees,it was still pretty nice.When it gets over a hundred here,it's crazy hot because we get 90% humidity to go along with it.

Hmm, I'm not sure I would consider spending time in 98 degree heat an award. lol. But it's got to be better than being at work, so congrats to the boss!!

Nice...we were on a trip there a few years ago. I see that you went past the windmill farms. It was a little too much upscale for me there, but we had a good time.
