Walking Log June 29_July 5

Friday, June 29, 2012: 5.7 miles:  Salem Rotary Park Greenway:  Record heat this morning.  The low was 84 degrees-the highest low in Roanoke's recorded weather history.  Then the temperature got up to 104 degrees...until the Derecho blasted through with 80-90mph winds.  Massive destruction.  We were lucky; only a small portion of our fence was damaged.  We lost power for a day.
