Hot Afternoons...
Living in Texas I have
suffered through hundreds
of hot afternoons
As a child…
my first line of defense
was plunging into the cold
blue water of the pool
An alternate escape
was an afternoon
at the library…
my second home
only two blocks away
I could peruse books
to my heart's content…
then sit on the cool
hardwood floor in a back corner
and read until closing time
Now…
those two things are still options…
But…
Nothing beats piling
up with a good book
or
a great movie
with AC and ceiling fans
cranked and blasting
Chilling at home --
Can't be beat!
