Re: Off subject topic, in the proper place
In the last decade, I have discovered that... when there are significant variables in temperature swings, my body tells me to slow down, or I will slow you down by default.
It is almost like my body becomes like a human sized, barometric pressure gauge and it rears its ugly head, with pain!!!

For me, old age means that I can no longer deal with hot temperatures. In Summer, I have to sit and watch the world go by. In Winter, I can still get out and get things done. Heat is a killer for me and it will kill me if I'm fool enough to go out into it.
Re: Off subject topic, in the proper place
I can't imagine summer in ND being so unbearable. I'll trade you a Missouri hot August day for a ND one any day (you don't have the humidity we do that I know of). Anyway, it's the cold that gets to me.garys wrote:For me, old age means that I can no longer deal with hot temperatures. In Summer, I have to sit and watch the world go by.

Re: Off subject topic, in the proper place
You need to come to Florida. I hate the Sun I run from shade to shade. My Dermatologist said I was one of the few smart people. But everything down here is AIR CONDITIONED. I die when we travel north to visit it is so hot no AC in most places.
We have had a looong hooooooooot summer. Still breaking high temp records in Nov. today was cool.

Re: Off subject topic, in the proper place
It isn't as hot here as what you get, but still too hot for me in the Summer. I wouldn't be able to tolerate your heat. You get even more of it than we do.Bruce wrote: I can't imagine summer in ND being so unbearable.
