When the sun beats down and melts the tar on the roof

 It’s hot. I suspect it is hot at your house too. I know why snd it has nothing to do with carbon or ozone or fossil fuels or global climate.

It is summer. It’s all about the tilt of the Earth and the sun. 

The grandgirls were simply astounded to learn I lived through summer heat without air conditioning as a kid. “Didn’t you get hot?” The oldest asked. 

Yes I did, but no one else I knew had air conditioning either. It just was summer. 

My brother and I slept outside in a tent a lot on the summer. 

We went to the public pool. We had fun and sweated and life was good. It was just summer. It was hot. 

So it goes.
