We tried a Mexican place in Woodinville, the name of which must mean, "No
air conditioning!" I didn't realize this until we had been seated. That's
when I noticed everyone blotting themselves with napkins.

Don't think we'll be eating there again. Angela didn't like it. Oddly,
they put ground beef on top of their bean dip. The other place we ate at in
Woodinville put chicken chunks on top of their bean dip! I didn't mind the
ground beef, but Angela hates it. And I hate chicken. So neither one was
good for us.

Angela didn't like her chicken or taco shells today and said something
wasn't right with the rice, but I don't know what the complaint was. I
thought my food was fine but it was just too hot to enjoy it. Supposed to
be slightly cooler today. Yeah, we are still up because it is too hot to
sleep.

What a shame!

That's not odd, but you could always have it without ground meat.

Just curious, are you and Angela ever satisfied with where you eat and the
temperature?

How ever do people sleep in hot climates?

The menu didn't say that it had meat on it so we didn't expect it to be
there.

I don't know. We can't. I can't stand hot or cold.

What do you enjoy in life? If you can stand neither hot nor cold, which
temperature suits you?

65 or 70 is perfect.

I found a kind of system this June when we had a heat wae during my
husband's last illness and I had no airconditioner. (remember we spent
our summer upstate). I found that taking a shower and then sitiing under
the ceiling fan cooled me down enough to get to sleep(with the fan still
going) and in the morning another shower with a similar sit, got me red to
get dressed adn go get a nice COLD breakfast ready.

I now have a small air conditioner in the bedroom and it is gret on the
very hot nights. I still prefer fresh air if it is not crazy hot.

Wendy in NYC havign had a very hot June and July.

Last fall we installed an air-to-air heat pump, to help heat the house in
winter. It can be run in reverse as a cooler, but we haven't needed it
this summer. Having AC in the rental car for our vacation was nice,
though.

Whew! I was hoping it wasn't mine. Mine needs water but we are on water
restrictions.

Possibly :-) It's not the exact coordinates, but in that neighborhood.

Wendy, we have no air conditioning (ok, we have a window unit, but for
as little as we need it, it often doesn't get put into place)

i LOVE my window fans (we have double hung windows, so we can do this
easier than with sliders or the ones that 'scroll' outwards) and turning
them on gives enough air movement that i'm not too hot at night

of course, there are additional room fans (pedestal or floor or........
you choose) that also help

when i was in Cuba, we had those slatted wood venting systems that
allowed air-flow at night......... we used that! LOL

My bedroom has this stupidly high window in it. It's up so high that to see
out of it, I have to stand on my toes. There is another such window in this
room. I don't feel bad leaving those windows open. Yes, a burglar could
get in if he/she really wanted to climb up there, but I guess it's better
than having no window.

When were you in Cuba? I was there in 1996 to be consecrated to ritual batá
drums. I'm also doing my Ph.D. on arranging processes in Cuban popular music.

errr.......... early 80's?

it was excellent and we had a GRAND time

mind you, during the day, we caught the local bus and travelled about
learning about how the people lived in Cuba

back to the Villa for dinner, and then off to a night affair of sorts

up at 6am to catch breakfast before the sailboat ride to a peninsula
where a luncheon was served, and then back to the dock in time for some
lazing on the ocean on my air mattress (yes, i did that and i was the
only person there with one LOL)

next day, back to the locals and check out how things 'work' in their
country

we met such lovely people, we were so very lucky
