The Monday after I picked up those jet engines at DFW I was in the LA Basin. It was 90° there and my AC was broken. The heat coming up through the floor from the engine, transmission and exhaust in a big truck can be unbearable when the ambient temps get over 80° and the AC is blowing warm air.

I checked the temp in the sleeper and it was 110°.

With the windows down and the vents open.

Ugh!

Nice shot. I like when the hummingbirds come around. I put out several feeders, and can sit for hours just watching them come and drink the nectar. Almost always there will be a Rufus male who will sit in a nearby tree and chase off all the others like the feeders are there just for him.

What a meanie!

Been there and done that nothing like being in a big truck with broken air in the summer and trying to sleep really sucks
