Home base, Escondido, SoCal, about the low 100's. Palm Springs was at 114 or so yesterday. Worked around Oro Grande and the Mojave river bed at a surface mining opertation (summer job) where it got to an easy 105 to 112 degrees daily. Funny thing is, after a few days the body seems to adapted to that dry heat. If you kept up the water most of the day,that is. I had a shoveling job most of the day. Had to earn that college money some way and kepted me in shape for football.
