How can something like this (http://anchorpoint.blogs.com/amythoughts/2010/07/summer-break.html) not make you want to drop everything and escape to Alaska? I’ve tried to be a die-hard new urbanist by walking the 1.2 miles downtown (AND the 1.2 miles back) with the baby instead of driving… but honestly, who wants to take a shower, sweat their ass off walking in 85 degree/95% humidity weather at 8:30am, and then either suffer through the rest of the day feeling sticky/sweaty? Not this guy.

There’s no doubt that moving to Florida was the best move we’ve made, but still… damn… it’s hot here in the summer, all the time. I could seriously go for some high 52 and low 47 weather right about now.
