I can vouch for that heat and humidity, I just got back from Kansas City, and it is hot and humid. Surprised me every day for a week, every time I went outside. It's nice to be back in Colorado where it cools down at night, I could use a little humidity but not quite as much as I experienced there. I did have a wonderful time, wish it didn't take 11 hours to drive there. I still only have little tiny green tomatoes, and my cousin harvested a red pepper while I was there. I'm ready for tomatoes and peppers too. Jane > > Not just Louisian and Atlanta - afraid we in Missouri are having our share > of reeley hot weather as well. In the 90's and very very humid.
