That said, I can deal with the heat and humidity, I just hate it when I sweat and it goes into my eyes. So I wear a head band / head covering of some sort to prevent this and I'm fine.

The other issue here right now is the sun itself. I am at 29.86 latitude. The sun on June 21st will be only 6.36 degrees off directly overhead. The strength of the sun at noon is 99.4% of if it were directly overhead. Sun protection this time of year is key!

I wear a large brim canvas hat and I also try to wear something on my neck, cause I'm a Red-Beard not a red-neck!

Yes, when I was cycling I wore a head covering under my helmet. It had a silicone band that ran across the forehead that did a good job of keeping the sweat out of my eyes, covered my neck, and made the helmet more comfortable.
Now I have a Tilley hat that I wear almost all of the time that I'm outside.

Ouch, painful irony, working in a hot warehouse moving AC parts. That sucks!
