  • Avoiding heat stroke at the county fair

    This Wednesday I will be going to my county’s annual fair. Going to fair requires strategic planning because of my heat intolerance. The best time to go is a night as the heat of the day wears off. I also have to carry a few items to ensure the I won’t die of heat stroke.

    My packing list includes:

    Gatorade- to keep my electrolyte levels up

    Cooling scarf– to wrap around my neck if I get too hot

    Bug spray- I’m allergic to mosquito bites

    Fan mister– to cool me down and provide a breeze

    Rescue inhaler- I’ve been sick the last week

    Cough drops- to make sure I don’t hack up a lung

    Hand Sanitizer- because germs

    What are your holy grail items that you bring with you on a big outing? Do you have any tips to stay cool in the summer?
