We have a lot of humidity too. It can sure make things miserable when it's really cold or hot!

My community holds a record for having one of the hottest days ever. It got up to 121*!!! I think that it was in the '30's but I'm not sure. My sister-in-law's Dad had a lot of memories from that time. He said that after working all day they would take the wheels off of the hay wagons and lower them into the wells so they wouldn't dry out and be ruined. I can't even imagine being out working in that kind of weather!!!!

We get quite a bit of rainfall compared to Western Kansas. I live in the green part of Kansas, in fact people think of all of Kansas as being flat and bare but the eastern part isn't like that at all. You'll find the flat and bare Kansas west of Wichita.
