Here’s Your Gay Desert Guide for the Weekend: July 28-30, 2023, 🌴

July 28–30, 2023

JulAugust is my new terms for these extended “dog days of summer”. It’s like that made up word “Thungry”. According to the Urban Dictionary, Thungry is two words put together: Thirsty+Hungry.

July + August this year just means some damned hot weather, occasional smoke in the air from wildfires and humidity thrown in for good measure.

So we are focused on things to do inside this week for our Top 3. Even “Boyz Night Out” is indoors at Hotel Zoso till the weather cools.  Sure you can still jump in the pool…

Our Oasis is subject to the same global warming extremes that the world’s climate is experiencing. I’d still rather be here than most places on planet Earth.  While hotter summers are going to be the norm, most months here are just glorious.

As a reformed Midwesterner, my mantra remains “You don’t have to shovel sunshine”.  It’s just nice to look at up on our mountains.
