After several days of off the chart temperatures, it’s feeling a little more reasonable outside with temperatures only in the 90s. Take advantage of the break in the heat to get out of the house and check out a technology event. While there’s not a whole lot on the calendar this week, there are still some interesting events. Have a great week!
