I specifically looked for a house without a swimming pool.

Less to take care of, I listened to some of the stuff dad told me. Couple that with the older I get the smarter he looks, I have citrus trees instead. I throw the soaker hose at them once a week, maybe twice this week, with the triple digits. Supposed to be 105 for the birthday party on Sunday. My wife will hate the hat I am going to wear, but portable shade on your head is not such a bad thing.

This is an important consideration, particularly if you happen to live deep in the heart of Texas There are devices specifically for this purpose. Bubbler I think they call it, very imaginative nomenclature. Often, it does not cool off at night, during hot spells. Hated that, I want it to cool off, so I can put the top down. It is not the heat, it is the humidity. Did you know that there is an unhappy confluence of barometric pressure, dew point and temperature where the relative humidity can exceed 100% I actually called the damn TV station when I heard that 102% jazz
