Are drum brakes supposed to get hot?

I just replaced my drums and after I drove around for an hour or so, I touched them on accident when I was cleaning my wheels and they were pretty hot. They were not smoking and they did not have that awful brake smell, just wondering if it is normal for brakes to get hot.
