Feeling hot, in a good way

We had some truly delightful weather late this past week.  Now the heat and humidity are moving back upward, but it's not too bad yet.  Actually, today was the sort of day I think all summer should be.  Summer should be hot; just not so stifling that I dread stepping out the door.  I think today's high was around 92 degrees Fahrenheit, and it was fairly humid but not suffocatingly so.

I paddled for 80 minutes this morning, doing my usual 8-second sprints before settling into a strong pace with several hard surges.  I felt good in the boat and am looking forward to racing on the mighty Mississippi above St. Louis next Saturday and at Baton Rouge the Saturday after that.
