I like my four distinct seasons where I live.

Fall hunting (dove, geese, squirrels, deer)
Winter hunting (deer, rabbit, geese)
Spring hunting (turkeys)
Summer fishing (with a few groundhog hunts thrown in)

Whatever the weather is, I'll take it.

I enjoy an icy hot beer on a decent day. Nothing like steam rising off an uncapped bottle from the inside beer fridge. I would likely melt away to nothing at 104 degrees.

As it sits nestled in snow at 30 below and is also steaming, that's the only description that comes to mind. That said, I'm thinking it is time for a beer.

I have a place in far south South Carolina (Bluffton). I've been down there in the very high heat. (Mills can attest to that.) I used to travel to Guam & Saipan on business and learned to adjust to the heat with light clothing and the right attitude. I keep reminding myself of the quote in "Lawrence of Arabia". "The trick is in not minding that it's hot"! It works for me.

That's great, but what do I do about the sweat soaked hair and clothing?

Looking to Yuma Arizona for the Dove Opener.
115-118 degree daytime highs.
Almost Argentina-like dove counts with endless Eurasians.
Think cool thoughts.

Acclimate ! I moved here from NH and anything over 80 was miserable . I am now completely comfortable into the mid 90's. Unfortunately now anything under 70 is cold.

Went to the gun club yesterday. Temp. 96 not much wind. All we can do is sweat and go on. Training for dove season.
