Another week, another heat wave. As I walked through the (mostly) air conditioned skyways this afternoon, I noticed that more people were using the skyways than the sidewalks below. We Minnesotans are a fickle lot. In five or six months, many of us will be complaining about the cold and these sultry days will seem like a fevered dream. But, as with most things in life, a little perspective is in order. Scores of Californians have died from heat-related deaths in the last couple weeks.
After going into the office on Wednesday and participating in a teleconference this morning, I think my next vacation will be to a place that forces me not to do any work. I wonder if French Polynesia is accessible.
