    Testimony

    I was in the Fresno Calif. area this past weekend. To make a long story short, I had to help put a large memorial service together for a Bishop who pastored for 48yrs.
    He died of Covid 19.
    This past week, we had a deadly heatwave with temps up to 110. It was Miserable,intolerable, the air was dangerous. I got heat exhaustion at one point, then I started coughing a lot, wheezing, I took every over the counter med I could just get through it. I struggled just to get through the service. It lasted 3.5 hours! No kidding.

    I got home late Saturday PM. At 4am Sunday I had to go to the ER. I was having an asthma attack. I haven't had asthma since I was a kid so it came as a shock. I took the treatments, got a prescription for prednisone & an inhaler, they also made me take a mandatory test for Covid. I thought oh no, God please don't let me have this.

    My Covid test came back today NEGATIVE, thank GOD!

    I was suppose to fly out tomorrow but I decided to stay home and relax

    Some were and some were not. I did not but where I was seated, I was within several feet of anyone. When I left, I went through a side entrance and did not greet anyone.

    Feeling better now? An actual outside temperature of 110 degrees is crazy, did the heat wave finally break?

    I have felt good all week thanks for asking.

    Coastal climate is very nice, cool, yr round it's fairly mild, no extremes , pretty much the envy of the world. But when you drive to inland Ca. areas like Bakersfield & Fresno, in the summer it's similar to Las Vegas. Extremely dry but HOT. Pollution gets trapped in between mountain ranges and creates horrible air quality during a heat wave.

    The heat wave lifted Sunday night
