Happy 4th July to all our friends south of the border. Hope the weather is good for the BBQ. Have a good one.

Here in PA, "partly sunny, high of 77." That's F, not C. 77F is quite comfortable. 77C, less so.

Thank you very much. I just returned from Niagara area and was very sad not to be able to cross over as we had in the past.

In New England we FINALLY have some sun! I was getting ready to build an ark.

Happy 4th of July to Americans and their friends everywhere! It is a bit cool but sunny here – nice day for a BarBQ – off in an hour to watch the Little Prince's soccer game!

Thank you, and a belated Happy Canada Day to our friends north. I'll put an awning over the ark and we'll bbq anyway, as long as the wind isn't bad.

It's raining here, but it still has plenty of time to become sweltering and humid!

Thanks for the kind thoughts!

77F-32 =45
45/2 = 22.5
22.5+2.3(10%)= 24.8C
I enter both centigrade and fahrenheit into the logbook all the time so can do the conversion in my head.

I think your problem would be in getting back into the US as you need a passport or equivalent document to do so. This is relatively new and a lot of people will not be aware of it. Tightened homeland security is the reason.

Nevertheless happy July 4th to all.

Here is Austin it was sunny, but frakking hot: 100 degree or thereabouts. I was on grill duty, and got baked and smoked!

We were rained out in Indy. But Sun and Mon were glorious, and the fire works we set off Sun night….


…were the bomb:)

I went on an 1812 tour with some friends in the first half of July, and we visited both sides of the border to see all the battlefields in the Niagara campaign. Yes you do indeed need a passport, and a Canadian passport is tangible proof as to who won the war! We had a great time on the tour which we designed ourselves. However I think the American decision to rebuild Buffalo after the British and Canadian troops burned it was rather questionable :<).
