Do hot, humid, sweaty days making you feel a bit like a wilting flower? A cold shower helps a lot. Even more, make sure you are getting enough fluids to keep yourself cool. In the summer, we need a lot of extra to stay hydrated.

Summer in the City: Celebrate with Picnics in the Park
Celebrate the season with a picnic in the park. It’s wonderful to be outside on balmy summer days or in the early evening air.
