Kelli said:Linda, I read an article once on Anza-Borrego Desert State Park and how the rangers still have to make their rounds during the heat of summer. The ranger was asked who would be out in such heat. He replied, 'German tourists. They love the heat.'


Yesterday it got up to 109F. We had to go outside to go to Souplantation. It was unreal. They are calling for a high of 95F, which means it will probably be around 98F at my place. That won't be hard to do. It was already 76F at 6AM. Usually it is in the high 50s at that time.


I did not know that Kelli. Two of those German tourists died. The third one made it out alive. We had one or two other tourists from other parts of the USA die as well this past week. Crying
