But, it's been way too hot. He's fine, I take him food from home... But, the line at his food bank is huge. I don't get there until after work, just as they open. It's 30 folks deep, standing on asphalt in the heat. I can't do that right now, it's brutal. Plus, I'm still on weight lifting restrictions because of my hernia surgery
It's getting rough, and supplies will diminish without local support
