At 0700 it’s 80*F with humidity to match. Today should top out around 97*F but we haven’t cracked 100*F yet this year. Just another north Texas summer.
These guys didn’t have as much humidity to deal with but a dry heat is still hot. Add in a little breeze and it’s like standing in front of a blow dryer or convection oven.

This is my ad free non-profit blog of my research notes on military history since April 2018.
This is a reference blog focused on a narrow niche of firearms, the Colt 1873 Single Action Army and it’s its replica clones. What they are, when they were made, how to fix them. Best navigation will be done by search or by browsing categories. Enjoy
