I really do. It was 105 degrees when I landed in Phoenix today and I really enjoyed it. Yes I did turn the air conditioner on full blast, but I also went for a walk in the park and sat by the pool for a while in the heat. 
I made the decision to come down here yesterday afternoon. Les and I worked to quickly get all the bookings done in time to give me a couple of minutes to pack before I headed off to work.
My Belgian beer, meat and bread dish went over well at the hall as did our training.  We blacked out the whole building with a smoke machine and did search and rescue scenarios.  Even on a slippery floor it is tough to drag out a grown man wearing 50 pounds of gear without any visibility.  
My shift ended at 8am and I decided that I had enough time to buy a couch that someone was selling in Richmond before going to the airport. This would make more sense if I was going to the airport a couple of kilometers away in Richmond instead of the one in Bellingham which is completely the opposite direction.  However, I managed to get the couch, stop for breakfast and still make my 11am flight with plenty of time to spare.  The Allegiant flight was great and amazingly hassle free.  I have never had such polite and pleasant airport and security staff as this before.  Our flight landed at 2pm and I was driving the rental car by 2:10.  I guess this is the advantage of the small airports.
