Vintage Heat

Posted by: Ruth | on July 19, 2013

I wear more than THIS guy, of course. At least, when I’m on my porch…

Like much of the country, Iowa is in the grips of a heat wave – although it ends today! One thing I’m mindful of and that gives me comfort as I lay and broil is that heat has been around for a very long time!

My house turned 100 this year and I think of those before me who have survived summer’s swelter – and probably had to wear a lot more clothes than I do now, too. And who probably didn’t have ceiling fans, which I am rich in.

We can do this! We shall! We will! No sweat! (I keed on that last thing, of course.)
