..out of the frying pan...

so, we move to the northwest... land of eternal rain..... riiigghttt.. this is the second day of 100+ degree weather..... but the humidity stays a lot lower than it does in indiana.. at the hottest point today(102) around 6 oclock, the humidity was at 16% ..... which in nicer than the 80%+ we're used to .. so instead of feeling like you're in a steam bath, it feels like someone left the oven door open..all day long.......... it's also a little different that the hottest time of day is not noon-ish, but rather at 5 or 6 oclock.... i guess the valley we're in causes the heat to build up until we all spontaneously erupt in a firey death.... or something anyway, at around 6 we happened to be at the oregon zoo amphitheater (which is greek for "bowl of heat" ) .... someone at work had no use for their concert tickets to see John Hiatt and Lucinda Williams ... we would have paid good money to see either of them by themselves, but instead we got to see them both for free..... yee haw.... and as a bonus, chuck prophet did a short opening segment.... we had a good time and i think the elephants that we're about 50 feet behind us enjoyed it to.... they didn't allow us to take pictures (the zoo people, not the elephants), but i remember the everning as looking something like this .. later, n..
