You're sure right, Dennis. I've had two sprinklers running since 3:30 a.m. today. I think all my life I've hated July and August in Texas and Oklahoma.

Ahhhh...........Oklahoma in July.:thumbsup: When I was little, we usually had my birthday on vacation in Higgins, Texas or Shattuck Oklahoma.
Grandpa and Dad's middle brother lived in Higgins and Dad's baby brother lived in Shattuck. While in high school, my cousin and I would hit the tennis (one) court in Shattuck in 102 degree sunshine. It was all dry heat and I loved it, after being raised in the shadow of all of Lou's humidity!hugs, Brandi

Brandi, tennis was always my favorite sport to play. I could never claim to be good at it, but I sure enjoyed it. When I was 14 to 16 years old, I played at lot in Marlow, OK. But the last time I played was at the FBI National Academy, Quantico, VA, in 1986. Of course, I didn't LIKE the heat, but it didn't bother me nearly as much in my younger days.
