Heat wave
This past weekend was unusually hot here on the Central Coast. The California Rodeo Salinas had its share of overheated particpants and spectators, but there were also plenty of heat-related difficulties at Laguna Seca, where the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix was being held. If you go and read the Monterey County Herald story of the Rodeo you'll understand what I mean when I say that I hope Don "Hollywood" Yates' backside feels much better soon.
Many of the locals stayed close to home and had salads and grilled foods and spent time playing in the sprinklers. But folks further inland were headed toward the beach, so anyone who ventured out onto the roads sat in much heavy traffic before they got where they were going. High temperatures are supposed to be much lower by the end of this week, which sounds wonderful. It's a rare occasion when our local thermometers have to push the mercury high enough to indicate anything more than two digits.
