5 things:
1. When AC goes haywire in 90F weather, I head for my porch.
2. It's shaded out there, and it catches any stray breezes.
3. I can say hi to the neighbors as they head for their cars.
4. The bird songs are glorious.
5. And I can keep an eye on my plants.
90°F weather? I head for my Porsche
ReplyDelete90F weather? I call my friend who has a backyard pool.
ReplyDeleteThere are lots of outdoor pools around town, public and private, but most of them are jammed with rambunctious kids! and my pal's condo has a rooftop pool to which I have an open invitation. It's more trouble than it's worth.
