Joey has it right on the money - we were 105 yesterday and are heading to 106 today.  In fact, last night we watched fireworks and it was still in the 90&#39;s at 10 p.m.  I like warm, but this is a little too warm. The only good news it that my back really loves this hot, dry weather.   Spoke with my friend in Edinburgh and she reported that yesterday it got to 63 there and it was the warmest day so far...yea, cooler weather&#33;<br />

Welcome, Shar, to CC - you&#39;ll be amazed at how friendly the folk are here.  I love Niagara.  We used to go to it all the time.  I grew up in Vermont, but had relatives in Michigan which we visted every summer.  Dad always stopped at Niagara (he was a water sign, he couldn&#39;t help it).  Keep saying I&#39;m taking the big guy to it some day.<br />

To all women who don&#39;t want to be girly women, do excercise some caution.  As a former manly girl(?), it&#39;s way too easy to trash yourself trying to run with the boys.  I now have the back of a 70 year old because I felt I had to out-lift, out-carrying, out-do all the guys.  I&#39;m all for women being able to hold their own (my dad had me changing tires and oil when I was 9), but do be careful.  I used to swing a 60 pound sledge hammer - now I can barely lift a carton of milk and picking up our cat is totally beyond me.  <br />

Am going over to the theater early this morniing to retireve and store the costumes not selected by the actors and to run another copy of the script - oh, three tech, yes, we would need three scripts then, wouldn&#39;t   we?  Then I hope to get a little typing done - almost through the audition list.  It was 68 pages long, but there was no wau to distinguish between actor, actress, volunteers and techies.  At least now we will have greater control over who is mailed to for calls.<br />
<br />
Early rehearsal tonight as the guys really need to run lines prior to the show.  I&#39;ve been inviting everyone to our Wednesday (11th) preview.  if half of them show up, it will be a beautiful thing.  If the guys remember their lines, it&#39;ll be even better.<br />
<br />
Here&#39;s wishing everyone a grand (and cool) day&#33;<br />
<br />
