It's an amazing new invention that sixty years ago really made a difference in living conditions in the south.
Please check into it - you and the Diz and the DH might just like it.
When we lived in North Carolina, we had central air in the house, air conditioning in the car, all the malls were air conditioned, and we spent the hot muggys summers down at Ft. Bragg, using one of their many huge pools to cool off and relax...
But getting central Air here, would really be foolish...of all the folks I know here, and I have been here almost 20yrs, I know of exactly one family which has central air conditioning...and they are rich folks, the dad being a medical doctor, and the mom having come to the marriage with a very large inheritance...
Besides, by the weekend, it will have cooled off greatly, and all will be well..
