I started reading this book the other day about life in the outdated west back a hundred or so years ago, but as I was reading it, I was resting outside in the sunshine on our patio and the weather started heating up a lot. I got too sizzling and I decided to go inside into the A/C so I could start cooling off a bit. It was when I turned the page and started reading about the burning sizzling un-even temperatures and the blowing sand that I realized that back then, people didn’t have any nice cool air conditioned homes to escape to when the weather got too sizzling outside. They just had to suffer and deal with all of the heat and high un-even temperatures. I don’t suppose that I could have even lived back then with no heating and cooling chances available to me at all. It must have been undoubtedly horrible to have to deal with all of the heat, dirt, and dust, can you imagine how poor the indoor air conditions must have been? I just suppose about how all the dust and sand must have gotten into the homes and buildings and they didn’t have any ventilation systems to help with the indoor air conditions at all! At this point in life, I won’t even spend time anywhere that doesn’t have nice indoor air conditions. I’m pretty sure I’m spoiled with our extravagant A/C and our whole home whole-house air purifier. I would really never have even lasted a day in the outdated west.
