June 20, 2015-Saturday-Tomorrow is the first day of summer, but today here in Independence, Missouri feels like, maybe the first day in hell???? OMG is it hot & humid! 95 degrees, the heat index making it feel like 105 degrees. The weatherman said there was going to be a wind today making the temperatures tolerable!!!! Where's that wind!?!
We want to go down to the City Market, & decide to do that before it gets too hot! Could it get any hotter!?!
I was surprised how crowded it was, as hot as it was outside!We left Otis home, suffering in the A/C! Good thing we left him home!
It's always fun to walk around here, & we did need some produce!
After our purchase, Lennie gives me a choice in lunch, burrito or hamburger??? That's a tough decision for me!?! I choose the hamburger & we go off to this unique restaurant we learned about on our Trolley tour!
HOW COOL IS THIS PLACE!?!I want EVERYTHING!!!!!
It's ready Len, go get my food!
OMG! This is gonna be good!
Oh yeah....died & went to heaven!!!
I will have to admit, I left that place in pain!
Before we head back to the RV, we want to drive by another fountain pointed out to us during the Trolley tour, & that's the Vietnam Memorial Fountain.
While we've been out, other than the crowd at City Market, we see very few people out & about! Everyone is at home in the A/C!?! That's where we're going too!
We enjoy the A/C for a couple of hours then decide to brave the heat again! Actually we're going out for a "Cool Treat!"
This is Clinton Drugstore, it's not just any drugstore, it's the drugstore where Harry Truman at 14 years of age, got his first job making $3.00 week!We went there for phosphates, Lennie got vanilla, I got cream soda!!!
This picture I took out the window from inside the drugstore.There parked is Ralph Goldsmith & his mules. I bet he can't even give those rides away today in this heat. I feel sorry for the mules.
We better go home to our animal! We're going to have BLT's for dinner with our garden fresh tomatoes! Let's hold off for a while, I'm still full from that killer hamburger!!!!
This blog makes me hungry!😋
