A few ways to cope with the heat

It’s hot! Temperatures in the 90’s with heat indexes well into the 100’s. Whew! Here are just a few ways some of us are coping.

Sam’s idea is to stretch out his body as far as he can for maximum cooling.

Alex’s advice is to stick your head under the tablecloth while eating outside to shield your face from the sun. Also lay with your back legs spread in frog-style to keep the belly cool.

And here is the best way to cope that I know of. Stay inside in the air conditioning until the sun goes down. Jump in.

I found the Panama Canal blog really interesting - it must have been amazing to see the boats making their way through. The pool looks lovely in the night light.

Joyce, I am so glad you liked the Panama Canal post. It was more interesting than I thought it would be (the canal itself I mean). And the pool not only looks lovely at night but the water temperature is divine right now!
