LesSnyder, I know what you are saying, I have one of those cracker houses with the terrazzo floor, louver windows, 10 degree pitch roof and even with the chimney and all the windows open (no insulation in these houses plus shingled roof) it was still 5 degrees hotter. I was in subic bay PI and lived there for awhile and would live most of my time in the jungle where the trees and creek would make life very pleasant. Where I'm at now doesn't have many trees for blocking the sun. On the go however I definitely would stay in the shade as much as possible and try to keep cool with any type of water I could find. I miss those days in the jungles of PI for sure and the third eye near clark wink great input, thanks.
