Many years ago we lived in the southwest portion of the Unitied States.
Now, if you are regular with this region, daytime rapidly changing temperatures can reach well into the hundreds & if you don’t have any access to a/c, it is down right miserable.
My pal and I were only in our early 20’s so didn’t have much in the way of money so we tried to come up with ways to holiday cheaply. My wife came up with the bright idea to go camping, in a tent, out in the desert. Now, they say, it’s a dry heat! Dry or not, when the sunshine came up, it heated up fast. Our only way of surviving the trip was to sleep during the heat of the day in the shade of the tent, & stay up at night when it was cool. My pal and I went night fishing & sat around a campfire with friends. That was our first, & last trip like that & now, years later, we feel our comfort is just as important as the locale we are heading on holiday. The days of sleeping in a tent without the benefit of a wonderful Heating & Air Conditioning system are long gone. In fact, my idea of a holiday now usually involves a condo or rental apartment that has every amenity that I could ask for. If the rapidly changing temperatures are too high, I want to turn on the Heating & Air Conditioning system & cool it down. The same goes if we plan a skiing trip in the winter. There has to be a wonderful heating system in the cottage. Many things change as we age, we enjoy the smaller things in life over the over the top adventures. My pal and I are both satisfied to cherish each other’s company, relax in comfort, & take in a show or something.
