I'd not been on the Tandy Hills for well over a week.
I don't know what has been different this summer than previous HOT Texas summers, but something has been making HOT hill hiking not a fun thing this summer.
Is it the humidity? That always seems to be the fallback explanation.
Is it because I have layered so much adipose tissue on my possibly formerly skinny frame that the fat causes me to overheat?
I suspect excess adipose tissue is not the explanation.
When I realized I was overheating today I made my way back to vehicular air-conditioned comfort via the least hill climbing route.
Overheating today has left me a bit head achy. Not pleasant. I suspect I will survive this latest self-inflicted ordeal.
It was not even 100 when I tried to go hill hiking today. I remember 2 summers ago when a martinet working for the Fort Worth Police gave me a ticket (thrown out) for not wearing a seat belt, it was just under 110. I recollect being HOT that day, but definitely not miserable.
I just got a message telling me that Elsie Hotpepper needs help getting dressed. I need to go attend to that.
I think you need to shake up your routine anyway. Here's a wonder (a "precious gem" they say!) that I suggest you visit and report back:

They say it's a "sinch" to get there.
Oh ... and "unique and natural" ... your favorites!
