It seems to get hot every year just as Tulsa Tough begins and this year is no exception. The high was 85 in Coffeyville yesterday and 93 in Tulsa today. With a heat index of over 100 all weekend, I am glad I am not one of the riders.
I pulled into town today during afternoon rush hour and spent an hour at Barnes and Noble browsing but buying a lot less than normal today. Since I filled my tank last week, gas has gone from $4.30 to $4.60 a gallon. If inflation gets much worse, this might be the last time I come to Tulsa for quite a while.
