What’s A “Good Luck” Duck?

It’s one amazing read, that’s what it is. I noticed a couple of weeks ago that this blog was being stalked by a Good Luck Duck.

At first I was OK with it, then I began to have nightmares into the wee hours. In these strange days they tell us that one can’t be too careful because you could get wacked by a falling satellite or get an invitation to dinner at a nice restaraunt with  a completey un-nice suicide bomber. And everybody knows you would never go to Mexico without a baseball bat or gun or both.

So, really, what is this duck thing anyway?

It’s a couple of extremely wacky ladies who share their strange and hysterical thoughts with anyone who cares to read them. I’ve been told politely that I  look at world from a little different perspective than the average Larry. If that’s the case I will plead that I am nearly normal compared to this pair.

Be prepared for a snicker when you read the Good Luck Duck

Hottest Day Ever

How hot is it? Usually on a hot day I enjoy a cold beer. Yesterday afternoon it was so warm that after I had that cold beer I found myself craving really cold ice water; and I drank gallons of it.

At 6:30 this morning the temperature is already 27C, that’s 37 when you factor in the humidity and they tell us we are headed for a high of 38C, or feels like 48 (approaching 120F). I have no documented proof but I’m thinking I’m about to experience the warmest day ever in my life.

At these temperatures you don’t need a thermometer to know it’s hot. Kind of like at 40 below, you know it’s cold, no one has to tell you.

50 Point is not known these days for good electricity. Our generator cut in late yesterday afternoon (the park does not provide enough power for all the air conditioners so our generator automatically takes over) and is still running at 7 this morning. It will probably run all day. While we are perfectly climate controlled in our coach, a lot of our neighbors are not so fortunate.

They say everything happens for a reason. Am I being prepared for living with extreme heat because I’m not going to heaven after all?
