How hot is it? Johnny Carson jokes about the heat are funny even on Antenna TV reruns; but the heat we are experiencing since our return to Arkansas, is no joke. It is only 84 degrees at 11:00am, but the "feels like" temperature is at 100 heading toward 108. On Tuesday, I jumped back into the Play and it was hot and humid, a far cry from the temperatures and humidity we had in Colorado during our stay there. The next three days will require a lot of liquid and staying in the shade to avoid heat "issues".
Officially it won't be summer for another five days, but that doesn't seem to matter. Hot is hot, no matter whether it's late spring or early summer, and this is as hot as we have experienced in our three years in Arkansas. My Holy Land duties will keep me outside the next three afternoons, and the Play involves a lot of physical movement, so this will be a test of my use of skills learned in my cycling days, long ago. Interesting that the Race Across America which we were part of in 1983 and 1984, began its 2016 race two days ago in Oceanside, CA.
It's good to be back in Arkansas. We were warmly welcomed (no pun intended), glad to be back in our familiar RV spot, level on the second try and have our air conditioning working. There are are some new volunteers on board to help share the load, some new projects already in the works, and we look forward to the tasks we will be part of as we serve the Lord, minister to others and be ministered to in return. Hot in service to God.
