Sometimes on a hot summer day all you really need is a little shade.
Staying above the water line!

A little shade is what I could have used yesterday, my wife and I FINALLY got an opportunity to set up our above ground pool for our kids. Was pretty grimy from storage, so we loaded it up into truck and took it to a carwash to clean it off. Set it up and bar-b-qued while it was filling up.
Got a lot done and got some good eats as well, but I got pretty sunburned. And my muscles sure do feel it this morning, where's my ibuprofen?
An expedient oxygen absorber for a 5 gallon storage container can be made by placing a golf ball size piece of steel wool and a tablespoon of salt inside a paper napkin and placing it in the container. The salt will absorb the residual moisture and the steel wool will naturally absorb the oxygen.

Make Your Own Electrolyte Beverage (Gatorade, Pedialyte, etc.)
To one quart of water add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 8 teaspoons of granulated sugar. Thoroughly mix all ingredients together.
This will replace electrolytes lost by the body due to dehydration caused by diarrhea, vomiting, excessive sweating, etc. A package of Kool-Aid, Crystal Light, etc. may be added to enhance the flavor and color.

It's the dog days of summer for sure. It's hot and getting hotter...plan to spend as much time as possible in the shade when out and about.
Thanks anon.
