Today – High 85

It was a little warmer than we expected, so Will made me wax 2 vehicles as punishment for not getting it right (Editor’s Note:

Today – High 84, Sunny

Pleasant morning ahead: 63, gradually warming to 83. Does not get much better than this in mid-June. The cherry on top is a slight breeze we’ll have all day. As The Intern, I’ll be allowed 25 minutes to drink sweet tea by the pool. Then I have to wax Will’s Jeep again. read more
