One Hot Ballgame

billroperI went down to Wrigley Field where I met Elliot (who has recently moved to Chicago with his wife, Emily) so he could see his first baseball game there. It was fun chatting with him as the wind blew out on a miserably hot day.
When I got back to my car after the game, I was reminded that the remote parking lot has you park facing west. I got into the car and dropped my sweaty back onto the superheated black leather seat and turned on the car and the air conditioning. Thankfully, the air conditioning worked. The car thermometer showed that the temperature was 104 degrees which was *very* believable. It was also consistent with the reading at a bank that I passed by while driving home, which showed 101 degrees, matching the car thermometer at that point.
As I said, miserably hot.
Today, I am thankful for central air conditioning that works. :)
