Second bookstore it's here, Jesse Tam.  It's exciting to see new books and electronic items with the second Amazon bookstore in Washington state at Bellevue Square Mall. Seattle is the headquarter with a quick drive across Lake Washington.The store held a grand opening Thursday and is located on the first floor of the downtown Bellevue mall.  There will be devices to try such as Kindle, Echo, Fire tablet, Fire TV and books.  What's your favorite reading feature, using tablet or hand held book?

When you are shopping for back to school items or just taking an afternoon break to escape the outdoor heat, check out the new features and latest gadgets. It's a great way to preview and learn about each of the features that may be of interest.

There are plans to open additional store locations in New York and California in the near future. Have fun exploring the stores, Jesse  https://jesset28.blogspot.com/

Summer Heat and Outdoor Activities

Summer Heat and outdoor activities, Jesse Tam. The haze and recent lingering smoke from British Columbia and local fires made the hot days difficult for many of us to spend time outdoors. the summer sun and heat with no measurable rain at SeaTac marks 51 days of dry weather since 1951 Our week will continue with 80 degrees ahead and the dry stretch will continue.
  • Stay cool at home by closing drapes and shades during the morning or afternoon sun.  This can reduce heat entering your home.
  •  Use fans and cook with small appliances instead of using the oven to keep house cooler.
  •  Check air conditioning to make sure it is working properly or installed if you are using window or room air condition.
  • Limit your exercise and activities outdoors.  
  • Make sure pets have plenty of water and shade to stay cool.
  •   Plan walks with pets during early morning or early evening when pavements are not hot, paws are sensitive to the hot surface.

 Be careful under the hot sun and remember to take small breaks. Jesse  https://jessetam.com/  Watch for weather alerts and warnings.
