Always practical sense... But its no fun without snakes and snapping turtles. I just don't want one latching on to wee willy so I wear tight cut offs and zipper locked when I wade out there.A water sprinkler is low maintenance and has no snakes or snapping turtles.
The best thirst quencher for me is lemon and cucumber... with a teaspoon of honey... and a lot of ice cubes.. you guys need to try this...
Another option with the same principal is to wet the curtains. Cheaper than a swamp cooler, much cheaper than ac. I say were almost all born with the ability to handle the weather and walk barefoot. It's the years of ac and wearing shoes that makes us soft. 40 years ago ac was rare here and nobody thought anything of it. Some countries hotter than the U.S. it's still rare because they can't afford it and couldn't afford the electricity if they could, yet they make it through better than us if we lose electricity. I was thinking about that lately when every time it gets over 100 they tell everyone to stay inside.
