I like the hot weather. You can get used to it if you stay outside most of the time. Sitting inside with air conditioning makes people less tolerant of the heat. Remember that air conditioning is only a recent invention. Our Founding Fathers signed the Declaration of Independence on a steaming July day and back then, they wore heavy wool clothing from head to toe.
I was used to the heat when I was a paint room foreman. 100 degrees was downright cool after spending so much time in proximity to paint ovens.
Well said. I'm in Texas and we keep the thermostat at 87 during the summer months...feels just fine to us. I have a long memory of the bone-chilling winters in Pennsylvania where I was raised. When it's well into the triple digits here, all I have to do is think back some 55 years to the icy blasts coming off Lake Erie.
Cue The Cremation of Sam McGee by Robert Service.
Me too. I will often cut the grass in the hot part of the day. My wife thinks I’m nuts. I seal off my office so its not air conditioned. When I go into the house, it feels like an ice box.
