I don't mind admitting to being old enough to remember before everyone had air conditioning. We took showers, several times a day. Sat in front of the fan, and the breeze would evaporate the moisture from our skins. Powdered ourselves with talcum powder to dry up the sticky feeling. That was what ladies did. I can't imagine having to do physical labor in this weather.

Hey! I just realized I haven't heard a lawn mower in days!!!
