On June, 30th, 2013 we saw online that it was going to be exceptionally hot in DV so we decided to go there to experience the heat, and take a picture for our annual Christmas card.  Though he digital thermometer reads 131 degrees, the DV Morning Report the following day stated that it was actually only 129 degrees ("only??").

I went out there on August 17. Why? Over 125 was on my bucket list. I think the official temp for that day was 128. The digital read 131.

And now i can say i experienced 128 degrees. Screenshot_20200926-122447_Gallery.jpg
