Cool Turtles



It gets very hot in southern Ontario. Actually, it gets very hot across the country other than Central Alberta. Right now, it's hot, hazy, and humid in s-w Ontario.

The fact is, once the outside temperature reaches 38 dec C, there really is no point in riding your scoot if you expect to get some temperature relief. Beyond 37 deg C, your body's normal temp., you actually start to be warmed up proportionately to the speed at which you ride. So the slower you ride the cooler you are and turtles, by extension, are real cool. They didn't teach us that back in high school, did they?

It always comes back to slow speeds in Ontario.

I'm heading into London this morning to visit with Wanda and Keith and will return to Sue & Reg's farm for the evening. I'd forgotten how peaceful evenings are in the countryside and the beauty of the warm evenings to just kick back and ponder. I'm looking forward to it.
