Our average record temps in the Tri-Cities are around 100 for the month of August so when we are complaining about the temps, be thankful that you don't live in Death Valley.
It might not seem like it's been a cold October but last month, Kennewick, Yakima, and Pendleton broke previous records of coldest temperature readings on record.
Listening to music on a record player has gone on the way side. I still love keeping my vinyl because it is so much fun to look at. Most of my cool looking records I have hung up on my wall.
