Some good fireworks practices are: 1. Young children and fireworks are a no-no. 2. Older children need adult supervision. 3. Keep a bucket of water handy in case of emergencies. 4. Never try to relight fireworks. Now, get out there and enjoy the celebrations!
Your best weapon against the summer sun is the color white. Loose-fitting fabrics in cotton or linen will help keep you cooler in the summer heat. So, get out your whites and enjoy!
Says the grill master to the brisket. Schedule your barbecue now for a relaxed night about the fire pit. If brisket is too much, wieners or burgers will do, and you can wind it up with toasted marshmallows on a stick or smores. What a way to make the most of a summer evening!
Okay, even in summer I don't recommend an ice water bath, but if you're out for the day, make sure you carry a small ice chest with ice and some small towels. As the ice melts, dunk the towels in your ice water bath for a cool you won't regret. Summer heat solved!
Outside time in summer's heat can dry out your eyes. Be sure to pack eye drops. If you live in a dry area (think Arizona), many doctors recommend you apply them 3 times a day! As Madonna once sang, "Don't cry for me, Argentina." Use eye drops instead.
