We are doing great. Thanks for asking. How's everything going up in the far north? We have a lot of smoke down here from forest fires, but we've had a break for the last couple of days. We're supposed to have some record-breaking temps here this weekend. 100+ degrees.
ouch..been cooler this summer compared to previous years.fire season has been smaller ,after a few bad years.will be a warmer weekend here but i won't last long.definitely a odd year..
