I do miss Seattle summers, at least they only last a week or so. Oh yeah, I'm sorry that you had to be in Redmond.

If all you need is strap sweat to make it summer, it starts in February and goes until November.

Proof for me that summer is here would be how angry the cagers are of late. I guess the nice weather pisses them off.

So far I'm still enjoying the temps down here. Granted I keep thinking of the upcoming days were you can start sweating just walking to the bike from the door.
