Yep. We are in our afternoon shower phase. I was able to cut about half my yard yesterday with thunder building up all around me. Humidity is crushing when the sun peeks out afterwards. Love me some Tillamook! 30 years ago drove from Portland to the coast and up north circling back and before I could see Tillamook, I could smell it. I love cows! lol

But with SPAM, now that's a different kind of luxury.

Happy to report this redneck has never tasted SPAM. Growing up in the country amongst farmers, ranchers and basicly sharpshooters! the only thing I had from a can was biscuits. That's because my sweet mama didn't do well at baking and daddy made a comment one time. From them on like Jerry Clower said, she made whomp biscuits. https://youtu.be/3syiTtZkfP0?si=IABZIb2Oa7fWHIBq

Awh yes, this Texan loves getting away to the cool mist in Arch Cape, sipping hot coffee and admiring the beautiful expansive beach and the waves crashing on Castle Rock, even when it’s sunny it’s cool!. Sigh Its warm and humid here today - typical 1st day of summer in Dallas.

Same here in San Antonio - hot and humid, but a very short rain of 4 minutes, then gone like it never came.

I do love the coast but being here on the dryer sunnier side makes me not miss the rain.

Grass growing so fast here in Oregon, we have to mow twice a day.
