Rockwood During A Heat Wave







Wow, this has been a scorcher of a week and today is supposed to be the hottest day of my entire life with record-breaking temps of 38 degrees celcius and it will feel like 48 with the humidity!

We did manage a walk/climb at Rockwood with friends, although we didn't last but 2 hours in the morning.

You really have to pace yourself in this heat.

The boys are so thankful that the pond is nearby for swimming! It has really helped them to cool down when they've needed to.

Lots of popsicles, ice water, juice, more piles of cold wet towels used as compresses, all fans blaring away, the odd trip into town and cold showers...all tactics used to try to stay cool and fight nausea and headaches.

Let's hope they work today!

Stay cool!!
