Very far from any heatwaves up here in the North, which is exactly how I like it. A very enjoyable 120 km in 14 centigrade despite it being a little too windy, but as long the air's crisp and breathing's easy it's all hunky dory.

Saw this baby sittin on some lucky guy's driveway in the middle of nowhere... literally. Had to double back to take a snapshot.

Re:

1963 Impala SS Sport coupe, looks like. With a GM 671 Blower and a 409 Big Block engine. You know, 26er, it barely got cooler here last night than your daytime high temp.-as I sit typing this at 3 PM California time, it's 97 F. (36 C.) outside...
 
Re:

Today-Wednesday-The late Summer heat wave continues-101 F. ( 38 C.) today, so I went out late morning when it was only 88 F.-but by the time I got to the top of today's climb, up about 1000' to the West- it was over 100 F. and time to find some shade...
