Lowest overnight lows here are the upper 40s so far. A spectacular day at Lake James. Shurtoff Mtn with Table Rock in the far background.

My wife and I took a drive up to Mackinaw City and back Sunday and Monday. The colors in the northern part of the lower peninsula were just perfect! Probably the best display we've seen in many years. :thumbsup:

Gee Moss, I can't believe you didn't drive west just a bit, and see us! :laughing: :confused::laughing: For the folks not familiar with geography, the UP is 300 miles across and Mac City still a long ways from here.

My grandfather retired from Buick in Flint in 1965 and moved to Houghton Lake! Been there many many times, jumbo peach!

Not much in the way of communications or snow removal equipment in U.P. in the mid 60s.

I'll take some of that cool weather. Still 110 out my way and we consider that a blessing after months of topping 120.
I gotta say this i surprised myself this year. 58 YO and the wife and I woked all summer long in 115/120 degree temps.

At sunrise the temps were already nearing 100. One day I out worked my excavator that shut down from teh heat, then I jumped on
the Kubota and it shut down from the heat.

I can definately say the AC units in both pieces of equipment DO NOT WORK in those temps.

We have one more week of triple digits and will drop under 100 on Sat.

I've about had it with the heat this year. I can't see me doing many more years of what
I pulled off this year.

Time to get outta here.
