Definitely summer time down here is indoor season. Maybe I'll take more advantage of the time inside and get some posts done.
That being said, here's a couple more Serial Numbered Insanity pages. Enjoy!

No holes in the pages so far which is a good thing. A bit of damage on the 19 card (OK, a lot of damage), but I don't think I want to hunt for a replacement. Only Atlanta and St. Louis are averaging a card per page so far, while 10 teams don't have any cards yet.
More to come, especially with the heat expected for the next.....several weeks.
Thanks for reading, Robert
I can imagine... I can't handle the heat and humidity here in Central Ontario.. I would melt there
ReplyDeleteI couldn't imagine trying to live in the South. Anything over 75 degrees with humidity here and I have trouble breathing. Not fun!
ReplyDeleteIt was a beautiful 77 degrees with little humidity in upstate New York today. Going to get humid the next couple days, but I don't mind.
ReplyDeleteLove the colored refractors from 2004-06 Topps.
Having spent a ton of time for work in Broward and Dade Counties at all times of the year over the past 10 years, I definitely agree. My worst experience was spending the better part of a week watching the excavation of underground pipes from a fourth floor roof of a 30-story hotel in July in Hollywood Beach. That was pretty bad.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I will say this about Southern heat/humidity: if you pace yourself slowly enough and get stuff done during the morning or in the evening, it's generally okay. You have to walk more slowly than you did in the north, but otherwise it isn't horrible.
It's been mid to high 90's the past few days in San Jose... but thankfully the humidity isn't too bad. I still hate the heat. Hope things cool down for both of us.
