Too hot to go

What is sad is that when the weather cools down... it cools down too much and it is then too cold to do anything. Or it cools down because of torrential rain. Lord knows that ain't fun.

We camp when it's really hot out. We just make sure our campsite is in the woods and we have plenty of shade. We also camp where there are pools so the kids can swim!

We have been having a severe heat advisory here in the Southeastern part of the US. I heard yesterday that our local civic center has opened from 9am to 5pm for people to come to who don't have air conditioning so they can avoid heat exhaustion or heat stroke.

I much prefer camping in the fall. The bugs alone are bad enough in the summer, not to mention the heat and humidity. We go fishing and swimming, but when the heat is this bad I enjoy my modern amenities.

I remember some real hot summers when I was a kid, but I'd forgotten how miserable they are. This was supposed to be the summer my husband and I started going camping, but we're waiting until fall when it cools off a bit.

Is anyone camping while it's so hot? If you are, how are you dealing with the heat?
