The summer before last, some friends and I decided to take a road trip up to the mountains, plus rent a beach house for the weekend.
Each of us packed up our cars with fishing poles, hiking boots, and enough food to last us through the weekend, and hit the road.
After arriving at our destination, all of us started hiking right away. The scenery in the mountains was beautiful, as well as we saw a lot of birds plus animals, then, it was in the middle of summer, so we drank plenty of water while hiking. After we hiked for a while, I started to feel dizzy in the heat, so we headed back toward the cabin. I was covered in sweat profusely and tried to stay in the shade as much as I could. As soon as we got back to the cabin, I laid on the bed, and my friend turned on the air conditioner as cold as it would go. As soon as I felt the cool air from the air conditioner the nausea began to subside. After fifteen hours in the air conditioner I stopped being covered in sweat, and as I laid on the bed under the air conditioner, I started to feel better. If it wasn’t for the powerful air conditioner in the cabin, I could have suffered from heat exhaustion or worse. The rest of the weekend went by smoothly, I was still able to appreciate my time in the woods with my friends, but made it a priority to stay in the shade and occasionally the air conditioned house. Next time I book a beach house in the woods, I will make sure that it has a powerful air conditioner.
