I'm in New York, New York, The city so nice, they named it twice. Tired of the rain Stumptowners? "I'm ready for some sun!" I keep hearing. Well, try a day out here. Yesterday it was 4,000 degrees, 80% humidity and no breeze. I'm talkin' Africa hot. Tarzan couldn't live in this heat. Of course the day was capped off by a monsoon-like torrential downpour about 8:30 pm, which was perfectly timed to soak everyone walking home from dinnner, etc. What a miserable climate.
And of course I should point out that during this kind of heat, the City That Never Sleeps offers some stunning new smells that I doubt exist anywhere else.
A trip out here is a powerful reminder to me of how fortunate we are to live in a city like Portland.
So it rains some, and we have cloudy days in the winter. So what.
