Your excellent post could be an editorial for the public eye. I'm frightened by what I see on the news about the weather in Europe - and look at the UK! Absolutely alarming.

Do you know, I grew up in a large house with no a/c. True, there were a number of great, big trees that shaded the house and helped keep it breezy. But although summers were hot, the difference was that the summer days were rather lovely - never my favorite season, but definitely had a romance to it. And nights were between cool and chilly. There was no drought; winters brought rain and plenty of it - oftentimes three solid days and nights of non-stop rainstorms. Real storms. And we always looked forward to one full day of rain in late July. There would be that one magical day of summer rain.

Now, you've seen my posts and seen the news. 114 degrees from today and through the rest of this week. The nights are warm. Talk about "endless summer."

I'm sorry I keep complaining, but behind my complaint is fear.
