(It sure would be nice sometimes!!) We make due with fans and windows and knowing when to open and close them. (I don't understand why my kids can't seem to learn this, as I knew from very young!) Hopping into a cool shower to rinse off and just relieve some heat from the body works really well too. Play in the sprinklers with the kids. Go to the fountains in the park. Go on a hike in the woods. They are usually 10+ cooler than general neighborhoods. <abbr><em>Michelle’s last blog post..<a href="http://www.myflightsoffancy.com/?p=443" rel="nofollow">I scrapped and other events in life.</a></em></abbr> My house has no AC, and I haven’t had AC ever.

It's amazing how much cooler this keeps us. Obviously we don't wear wet clothes when we're out and about. But when I'm at home or working in the yard, I'll often be seen with a damp shirt! <abbr><em>Melissa’s last blog post..<a href="http://musingsbymelissa.com/?p=293" rel="nofollow">My Big Ladies Weekend Away</a></em></abbr> Something we do to keep cool is to wear a damp t-shirt.

I kill two birds with one stone by hanging the laundry in front of the open doors and windows- it makes the air really cool, dries the laundry quickly though the draft and makes the house darker by blocking the light, which also helps to keep it cool. <abbr><em>Kelly from Almost Frugal’s last blog post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/AlmostFrugal/~3/xmkyyZqJUC4/" rel="nofollow">Turning a Hobby Into a Job</a></em></abbr> I don’t have a dryer, so I have to hang the laundry to dry.
