As far as the heat goes,I'll be right at home in those temps.Funny thing is I grew up in Minnesota and then I move to the Desert.Talk about one extreme to the other. -100 with the wind chill factor to +120 with no wind.I can honestly say that I love the desert! I will always miss Minnesota for all that it offers. |

You know the weather in that state(Mn) has not been normal for some time,even the humidity.
I used to use a lot of muskol (spelling)you know the stuff they use to have real high levels of DEET? Not a bug would touch you. Jump in a canoe on the northern stretch of the Mississippi is one way to avoid the bitters(at least out of water) I can say that going down that river is one of the best memory's of my life. It would be easy to make a makeshift sauna in my shed,just add some rocks and water.
