Another three day weekend for me again. The summer camp my school bus company services is bringing in the final batch of new campers for orientation so it's closed for today. However, we drivers will get paid for it. One of my job's perks. 🙂

He's the fourth well known person that left us in a week. First it was Terry "Hulk" Hogan, then it was Chuck Mangione and Loni Anderson passed away this past weekend. May all four RIP. 😞

Sunny and low 70s all weekend. A little day road trip to New Hampshire in the Corolla is planned for Sunday.

Model cars. When I was a teen years ago, I'd hop the bus to Woolworth's after Christmas and buy model kits that were part of the store's after holiday clearance sale for $2 each. Mostly it was MPCs

I broke my favorite coffee mug last night and while I told another driver about it this morning, our GM overheard it and came out of his office with not one but two new coffee mugs and gave them to me. Both have the company's name and logo. WHAT GUY!

The summer camp cancelled all activities today because it's real scorcher outside but the drivers and I will still get paid for it. I'm in AC City for today.

Sunny and 97 degrees today with a heat index of 105.

Cherry.

The thunderstorm that came through Boston yesterday took the humidity with it and it's sunny and pleasantly warm today. I could hop into my very trusty 08 Corolla and take a cruise but I'm too lazy to leave my place. The AC is doing a great job.

A good thunderstorm is moving through my area at the moment. It should cool some of of the high temperatures that we're having here in the Metro Boston area.

Roughly 10 minutes before I was to head out the door to work, I got a text message from the GM of my school bus company that said the summer camp has cancelled all activities due to the high temps for today. The heat index is expected to be 103 degrees in the Metro Boston area. However, the drivers will get paid for it and since it's Friday and payday, I'll get to have a three day weekend. It's AC city for me. OH YEAH!

The boss didn't mention this but 4 new busses arrived today and they were being prepped by the mechanics even as I was returning from my camp run late this afternoon. He wants them ready to go by the time school starts late next month.

Quite pleasant here in the Metro Boston area. Partly sunny, dry and 81 degrees is on tap for today. The weekend looks to be the same.

The summer camp that my school bus company is under contract with cancelled all activities due to the heat but we drivers will get paid for it. And a short time ago, I go home from the VA clinic from having blood work done and to meet with my doctor about my blood pressure and changing some of my medication for it. Everything went well. I'm now chillin in front of my AC.

It was 94 and 60% humidity in Boston yesterday but thankfully, thunderstorms came through overnight with a cool front in tow. Low 70s and cloudy is on tap for today. I was sweaty as anything yesterday when I got home from a hot school bus but I felt much better after taking a good shower and drinking plenty of water.

Momma cat and her three little ones sure like their digs.

I got home from spending the holiday weekend at my lady friend's cousin's home and we had a great time The pool was great and so was his hospitality. Nothing fancy. Just nine civilized adults relaxing and sipping wine.

A thunderstorm is moving through my area at the moment. A Boston weatherman says it'll cause the dew point to drop but the temps will still remain quite warm well into this upcoming July 4th weekend.

Today was the first day of summer camp and it went smoothly. Unlike the school kids, the summer camp kids were well behaved thanks to the staff. Like my boss does with the school bus company, the camp director runs a tight ship.

Nothing irked me today but I planned a two day RR trip out of town last week but last minute changes forced me to can that idea.

Mu humble 2008 Toyota Corolla is my daily ride. Nothing flashy. It's just a good solid little blue collar car that works for a living.
