Havin' a heatwave...a tropical heatwave...

It's dang hot here in the Florida panhandle. I think we got to 101 degrees today. As the ever positive cousin Joan says, "It hugs you." We did get some thunderstorms thoughwhich is always mahvelous.

I have been studying up on ways to live "off the grid". Really I just LOVE to camp and we are working toward making one of our family lots at Lake Eufaula a primo camping spot. I actually got to go camping some last summer and am gearing up to camp a lot this Fall (that is if I can land myself one of them there jobs).

Often I also dream of living a completely sustainable lifestyle. So, to feel like I'm doing SOMETHING to conserve, I purchased a sunshower from Walmart for $5.88. It holds 5 gallons. At least I can use the sun for heating my shower water. I'll let you know how it turns out. Pic is from photobucket and is similar to the model I bought:

Still having really hard times re. family in Wyoming. Please keep us in your prayers!
