Well the heat wins. We decided to head home tomorrow. While the mornings are really nice it gets to 101 by 1:00 and is still 97 at 7:00pm. That's just not pleasant to us.. We definitely will not stay in Texas next summer, I'm pretty sure the rocky mountains will win. Again the morning was great and we sat outside till about 11:00. The water was once again great to float in. We came in and cleaned up , had a little lunch , then we headed to the Mammoth Site here in Waco. It is now a small National Park. The dig site is fully enclosed and air conditioned. It has a full grown male mammoth skeleton intact. Also a female mostly intact along with some young ones. There is also a camel skeleton and various other bones. Its an interesting tour and a fairly recent discovery in 1978. We went back to the trailer and spent the evening watching movies. We did get some scattered storms around us but no rain on us.
