Quote (Fragile Magic @ July 19 2010,9:03 pm) | I grew up out in the desert, we slept out in the "sleeping porch" which developed into the "Arizona Room" all the time. We didnt even have locks on our back door until like 1980.
I don't know if we have that anymore, but growing up the world was a big wonderful place.
I remember when a murder anywhere in AZ would be all the talk for weeks, now there are several a day, and unless they are unique, they seem to be "no big deal" anymore....
Great, now I better go lock the back door......... Â
Enjoy your evening in the Buckeye, write back in December! Â |

No problem sleeping outside here in the summer, in fact it's kinda nice being out by the pool, get a little warm you can just rollover into the pool and cool off!..

Did that as well...back in our "younger" days... We'd soak towels in the river for bedsheets...

Quote (lawbreaker2 @ July 19 2010,8:55 pm) | Ohio's not so bad. Sitting out here in front yard swing listening to the crickets and tree frogs and that it maybe a car or two or a bigrig rolling down the hyway over there but other than that it very peaceful out here. Yes out here in the country you can sleep out side and its should be safe. LOL 71* and cloudy but very nice. Its nights like this that make you think about staying here. I don't know if you can get that out there near phx. Can you. |
I'd settle for that nice view you have...what are them tall green things again... Â

It's funny to see my son and his friends shivering and "freezing" when getting out of the pool in 100* weather....The miracle of low humidity! Â
Time to roll back into the pool now.... It's frickin' humid today!! Â |
Yeah, I found that strange when I first moved here, first time in the pool was around 110 and come out and I froze my arse off, WTF!!!...

Thought the wife was nuts when she told me that. So first time out at the aunts place in vegas it was 95* and I was just laying by the pool and just rolled over into the pool and came out thinking WTF I'm cold.
