Geez.

The apartment I’m moving out of had two window units and still struggled the cool a two room apartment. Like struggled. I eventually broke down and bout a big fan to help.

It just gets ridiculously hot down here. Like I can work outside for 10 minutes and I’m pouring sweat already.

As I said … you poor sod. I set my thermostat at 65 in the summer to keep the furnace from coming on at all … the house usually sits at 68-72 most of the summer, unless it is 80-85 outside during the heat of the day for a prolonged period. Then it may get up to 75-78 inside. In winter I set it at 65 at night and 70 during the day. Some people consider this paradise.

I will be up there in September of 2020. Will be going out to Brooks Falls, among other things. Got the bear cam on right now. Bears looking like they have been doing damn good, bellies about scrapping the ground.

DA’s recommend thermostat settings: whatever makes you comfortable. You’re welcome.

Be forewarned. Tradition has it that they feed one tourist to the bears as payment for letting you watch them catch fish.

I just have to be faster than the slowest person in the group.

That is true.
