First Blog for site

It has been very hot lately, its been highs over 110 for a bit here now and the summer soltice is not until Saturday.  We take the kids to the pool quite frequently.  The kids still have water fears so they stay in the neck and below water.  The paper route still bites but we are trying this Hypermiling technique of driving and it works quite well.  We generally have to fill the van up with gas every 5th day because of the terrain we deliver in.  Since we started the hypermiling we have extended the fill up to the 7th day.  It works and it saves money.  I turn on the indicator in the van and sometimes i can get more than 99 mpg, downhill of course.  We will be posting pics soon to be as cool as the other Boyle clan up in Alaska.  "If you eat it, it must be good".

It's hard to imagine 110 degrees when we're still wearing sweatshirts in the middle of the day...I think those hot temperatures just make you crave hamburgers, pools and happy things like A/C and cold water in the shower. Enjoy!
