Cool Off!

 

It's been hot, hot and hotter lately. So what's the best remedy for little and big bodies alike who are overheating? Better than snow cones, better than ice tea and, dare we say it, even better than A/C - taking a dip in some cool water!

There are some great places around the region: swimming pools, fountains, river and lakes. Of course, in this record-breaking heat wave, these hot spots (or should we say cool spots) will probably be fairly well-populated with other families seeking the same relief from the heat, but we still think they are still the best places around.
