Fortunately here where I grew up it didn't get to bad. I know my in-laws who are from Oklahoma tell about those days. They had screened in porches that they would sleep out in on the hot summer nights. Yes, when I was a kid the only time we locked our doors was when we went on vacation. It sure is a different world now!Elenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08356506734835725327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323550437588571742.post-37097030959211196202010-06-21T23:01:00.111-05:002010-06-21T23:01:00.111-05:00Great post!

They could not do that in Las Vegas.<br />Always with one of my parents hollering ...'shut the screen! your letting the flys in' !<br />Love summer!Kerinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16836707727301350889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323550437588571742.post-48567335259284304892010-06-21T10:26:04.201-05:002010-06-21T10:26:04.201-05:00All my children grew up without air conditioning!!...All my children grew up without air conditioning!! And they talk about it like they are from the cave-man era!! We had a huge old Victorian house and the windows were huge. All of them. As in 52x72!! But when all the windows were open, the house was designed so that the air circulated in a kind of circle. It was wonderful and that is one of the things I miss most about my "new" house. Granted, it did get hot some days, but we were never miserable. When our old furnace finally went out and we installed central heat, we put in central air at the same time. (I actually felt kind of bad about doing that to the old house that had never even had a window air unit in it before!)

I remember trying to sleep in the Texas heat...blazing hot with locusts singing at the top of their lungs. It's nice to think of but I'm glad we don't have to do that anymore.Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05728612514516285320noreply@blogger.com
