This past Summer was a scorcher, and I guess I say this every year, even though I think that it was the hottest Summer I’ve ever experienced.
For a few weeks there it was dangerously hot, where I wouldn’t even let myself and others little ones go to the swimming pool down the street… Both of us stayed indoors except for in the evening and at night, just because I didn’t want to risk any of the young ones getting heat stroke! That is an honestly real chance when the heat gets extremely high, so for most of the Summer all of us stayed in, watched films, and enjoyed the A/C.
After that first week the youngsters started getting a little bored, and were sick and tired of watching films, even though I explained how important the A/C was this time of year. Both of us went outside in the backyard for a few hours, then went back into the cooling of the house, and then back outside. As all of us did this, I let them know how the incredible heat and bright morning light could sap the energy from us, and so while the morning light was in the sky we really needed to try and use climate control as much as all of us could. After the morning light went down I took them to the family pool down the street, and that was a blast, however even at night it was uncomfortably warm out there with no A/C. The rest of the Summer went by honestly slowly, and the youngsters ended up finding escape from the beach house in air conditioned sites like the mall and the local library.
