Tuesday: A day to: chill out.
As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group gives Kossacks a safe place to check in, a daily diary where we
can let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, earthquakes, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. It also allows us to find other Kossacks nearby for in-person checks when other methods of communication fail - a buddy system. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, earthquakes etc.), we and your buddy are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!
IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a Kosmail and ask to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!
We do have a diary schedule. But, when you are ready to write that diary, either post in thread or send FloridaSNMOM a Kosmail with the date. If you need someone to fill in, ditto. FloridaSNMOM is here on and off through the day usually from around 9:30 or 10 am eastern to around 11 pm eastern.
Blessedly, we in the Greater SF Bay Area have been having not-hot weather. Cooler than usual. Now we locals do realize that our hotter weather usually shows up in September and October, but our July and August, still, have been cooler than usual. And no wildfires close by either. Fingers Crossed.
Note the SF Bay Area temp.
The NYTimes finally seems to have caught up to the “cool SF summers” reality we locals know to be so true. Still, nice article!
It covered the usual “tourists caught off guard by chilly, foggy SF!” angle.
These guys are wanna get some long pants!!
Stores in SF and Sausalito do a land office business to chilled tourists every summer!
How has the summer been for all of you this summer?
