EXCESSIVE HEAT WATCH IN EFFECT TUESDAY AFTERNOON

The National Weather Service has issued an excessive heat watch in effect from Tuesday afternoon through Thursday evening, actual temps will be over 100 those three days with indexes in excess of 110. It is strongly advised to drink plenty of fluids these days and to avoid prolonged periods of time in the heat, I am sure all the AC around here have been extremely busy the last few weeks. I did hear on the radio Saturday that somebody called and said the earliest they could get somebody to fix there AC was Thursday of this week because they have been so busy. The Appomattox League playoffs began tonight and we will be playing Prince George at 6pm at Prince George High School. Andrew's team lost yesterday but I don't know what the score was, they play again tonight at 8pm at the Robiuos athletic Complex. Keith is out of town again this week working for the gov't, this week he is in Moorestown, NJ, he has been allot of traveling lately. Well I hope everybody stays cool today and I hope some of you didn't eat to much birthday cake. MICKEY
