Guest guest Report post Posted July 22, 2006 we just moved to a new building and at first the air didn't work at all and it was about 107 with the heat index. Then it got so cold people were wearing jackets and bring in blankets. So now its back to being warm. I don't know but I love it colder than most though. - Peter Wednesday, July 19, 2006 1:27 PM Re: Re: tad warm out there Hi Jo (and everyone)OK... here's a question.... has *anyone* ever worked for a company where theair conditioning actually works properly?

Guest guest Report post Posted July 22, 2006 I prefer it cold to hot - at least you can add more layers to keep warm. Unless you have good air-conditioning you cannot stay cool.

Guest guest Report post Posted August 3, 2006 Hi Jo (yes, I am VERY behind on posts-LOL) All this week it has been at least 95 degrees F with a heat index of at least 105 to 111. Last night and this morning we are having some big storms so it is going down to 85 at least. The pool water yesterday was at 92 degrees from the heat. We've been here 8 years and that is the warmest the pool has ever gotten! Nikki , " jo " <jo.heartwork wrote: > > Crikey (excuse old-fashioned word).

Guest guest Report post Posted August 3, 2006 Hi Nikki That sounds terrible. Luckily our temperature has gone down this week to between 20 and 25, which is just right (I hope it is warm enough for Valley Vegan's girls to play on the beach).
