Everywhere you go today, people are talking about the heat. Aren’t you hot? It’s a good day for an ice cream..let’s meet at the pool!
I feel so spoiled living in a place where 89 degree weather is considered record breaking. I was born and raised in Arizona, so 89 degrees was fall and spring weather. With summer temperatures regularly above 110 degrees, the weather was opressive. You don’t even go to the pool in 110 degree weather- the pool is too hot!
Forecasters predict Marin County daytime temperatures will drop back down into the seventies later this week- just in time for Mother’s Day. Fabulous- the perfect temperature for a spoiled Marin resident like myself.
Why do people live in a community where a starter home can cost more than a million dollars? Weather. 70 degree weather through a good portion of the year. 89 degree temperatures considered record breaking. That is my reason for living here! Mild temperatures allow outdoor activities all year round. Ok, it might also be for the breathtaking views. And also the proximity to water, mountains, rivers, wineries, sking, boating, kayaking, wind surfing.
Oh yeah, and the easy commute to San Francisco and all that it has to offer- culture, restaurants, the San Francisco Giants. And don’t forget the schools.
Even for a transplant from Arizona, this 89 degree weather is too hot. I guess it is time to head to the pool.
