I know people that are not bothered at all by the heat, but it does bother me. The heat can also be dangerous. Our last hot summer we had people dying because they were working outside, who were not that old (40s), and relatively healthy.
People from hot climates probably don't mind the summers as much as the winters. I don't mind our winters that much, because you can always just dress more warmly.

That's my thought, too, Peggy. You can always put on more clothes in the cold weather, but in the hot weather there's only so much you can take off before it's "good morning, Judge."
Sometimes in the summer I want to take off my skin and just walk around in my bones.

I grew up with dry heat in CA. It would get to be 105 and a little up. The first days we would go downtown (pop 200) and sit in an air conditioned bar. after that we were used to it and only used fans. I loved swamp coolers and should have gotten one. Here we don't turn on the air conditioners until late afternoon just to cook it off. We use fans. I hate air conditioning. I hope to someday have our porch enclosed with screen so we can sleep out there at night. It isn't as bad here as it was on the coast of Florida or even Mississippi, or so it seems.
I love this warmer weather. I remember looking forward to summer in CA. It was my favorite time of the year. We moved out onto the porch and stayed there until it was too cold to sleep outside. I love the winters here too.
Working in the yard is hard in the heat, but someone told me a neat trick. Put a wet terry cloth dish towel around your neck.
