I guess it's all what you get used to, the temps don't bother me as much as this crappy snow does plus all the damn salt they put on the roads.

I don't care too much for the high heat either and the wife tolerates even less. You guys seem to have it pretty good where you are, at least your winters aren't 6-7 months long..lol

I love the heat out here in the desert! Very low humidity so it isn't all that bad, unlike when I lived in the deep South. It's hot down there, but the high humidity makes it terrible...

I was only in Florida once, back in June of 76, sitting still you could watch the sweat coming out of your pours and dancing in the sun. It was definitely too hot.
