If you're planning on visiting Ketchikan in the next week or so, please unpack your fleece jacket and make room for the sunscreen and flip-flops. It was well into the 80's today, and doesn't look like it will be getting cooler anytime soon.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining! I'm soaking in every bit of sun that I can. I just wish we had central air conditioning in our house! We haven't had much rain this summer either. So far this year, we've had about 48 inches of rain. For a city that usually gets 155 inches per year, that's a shortage. Does that mean we'll get constant downpours this fall and winter? I certainly hope not. The lack of rain has caused some problems for people who aren't hooked up to city water. Usually there is plenty of rain to keep the water tanks filled to the brim. Now people are having to purchase water for their tanks.
I'll be taking advantage of the sun while it lasts...maybe I can get my legs to look less "ghostly."
