heat playing tricks with my mind




















sometimes it's nice to wander back through the calendar
to have a look at where i was
at this time last year
pix above reveal moments in Denmark
finding a lovely orange wall in Copenhagen
that beautifully matched an ecoprint wool dress
and of course
lovely blue cool shadows
shot in the park not far from that wall
i'm rummaging in cool climate photos
because
it's warm here in South Australia
about 47 C
those of you who work in F
can calculate just how hot that is using the following formula
where C is the temperature in Celsius and
[surprise] F the equivalent in Farenheit

F = ( 28 + {[347 x C] + 278} x 512 ) divided by 2

oh and of course add 32 to account for the different freezing point.

pour yourself a nice cold cup of gin
and enjoy

    As my brain trickles out of my ears, your magic formula is dancing an underwater jig before my eyes. . . wish it would stand still for long enough so I could find out what Far & hot is all about . . .

    We are always in opposite temperatures- cold gin for you and hot tea for me here in this cold cloudy gray climate-- or maybe hot gin!

    Box up some of that heat and send it to the midwest/St. Louis area to melt what is about to come. A triple whammy of freezing rain (starting midnight tonight, ice storm tomorrow with 1/2" or more accumulation, and then a snow storm of heavy wet snow up to 12" on top of the ice followed by high winds and very cold temperatures is predicted. With the ice and wind comes downed power lines so am not looking forward to this. Heat. Need heat!
    BTW--nice new layout for blog.

    That is such a complicated formula! What about double the temp in c and add 30? Still hot which ever way you look at it.
