First Day of Summer!

It’s the first day of summer and it is hot and humid in Houston. It’s hard to believe today is the first day of summer—yesterday the car was reading 104 on the outside temperature gauge. Probably not accurate, but it sure felt like 104. But, give me a hot day in the sun instead of cold and freezing any day. My friends that live in northern climates complain, complain, complain when visiting Houston in the summer. But, if you compare the number of days we can play outside in Houston throughout the year, versus the number of days they are trapped inside because of snow and freezing, we will come out way on top. And summer in Houston promises beautiful, blooming crepe myrtles (they love the heat), and lots of fun in the pool. We have to remember to wear lots of sun screen and stay hydrated. It’s fun to drink a sugar free beverage by the pool almost year round in Houston, but especially in the summer. Stay cool.
