It's not that it's not hot in Florida, it's pretty awful here too. But we go from our air conditioned house, to our air conditioned car, to the air conditioned store or wherever we're headed. In NY you have to walk in the heat wherever you're going. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-are-you-beating-the-heat#post-214930 Mon, 09 Jul 2012 06:33:25 +0000 mediagirl 214930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to the mall and walked around on Saturday. Other than that, we've been just using up the a/c and trying not to think about the utility bill. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-are-you-beating-the-heat#post-214924 Mon, 09 Jul 2012 06:22:53 +0000 mrbee 214924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the a/c on at home a lot, but we do still go outside and dang... it is so hot!</p> <p>Here are some things we've done to beat the heat:</p> <p>* Take a coolish bath in the middle of the day<br /> * Eat popsicles at home<br /> * Go out for gelato<br /> * Go to playgrounds with water features (i.e. those hydrants that spray everyone)<br /> * Bought a small wading pool for the backyard</p> <p>What about you... how are you beating the heat? </p>
