Heat Frustration

This morning I had to be at the local VA hospital for a meeting. One upside to the 3 hour long meeting was that I avoided the sun beating in on me through the 7 foot high wall of south-facing winbdows in my office. Another upside to having 7 foot high south-facing windows is this:



I can force all sorts of tropical plants into bloom.

The downside is that while my office is locked up in my absence, the temperature soars to about a zillion degrees. Which is why I'm using evaporative cooling measures (no, I do not have a thermostat in my office; that would have been the intelligent way to design this building).
