That wonderful time of year is creeping up on us this weekend. Indian Summer! Those great days when the thermometer shows 90 degrees plus. These are the days that the classroom becomes unbearable because there is no breeze coming through the windows; the fan cools the lucky few sitting near it and the only place with an AC is the faculty room! It is the few days San Franciscans complain and wish for the fog. And then when the fog comes, the complaints start again 'cause it's too cold. But, it's the Bay Area...downtown is warm and you travel towards the beach and need a sweater. Why it's called "Indian Summer" I don't know. But I do remember my 5th grade teacher, Miss Weaver, telling us that San Francisco has a Mediterranean climate. So, it's time to make ice cubes, hydrate, and try to stay cool. Happy Indian Summer a todos!!
