I thought he was a local from Toronto as that is how they pronounce it. Do you mean its an actual place?

I 've been taking out the filter and washing it under running about every ten days lately, because it seems a lot of tree pollen wafts in and gets caught by the filter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do our Filters weekly now but the main problem is the Fan Blades. This we can't do 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve GCC Posted June 20, 2017 Posted June 20, 2017 I like others think you do acclimatise to the Pi weather to a certain extent........... I for one can sleep with a fan at night as had to in early days staying in the in laws home. However now with AC I know what i prefer............ been in middle east for ten years so do get used to the heat........its the humidity that destroys me!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert k Posted June 20, 2017 Posted June 20, 2017 Not a big sunglasses wearer but I believe you can trick your body into thinking it is cooler if the light hitting your eyes is not as fierce, the same way you can make a person at night wide awake with full spectrum light. I've only actually seen one foreigner, man use a parasol but I'm sure it would help. Carry your shade with you. I didn't know any people who did but I'm sure some people just live a nocturnal existence. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have carried my shade for years...........got it from a haberdashery......first good one was a Tilly.... but I really like Akubra. Looks cool at night too..like your sunglasses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually spotted some silver, not in producible quantities though. I like the desert but would not like to live there. We used to go riding the sand dunes there. We've been camping at Big Rocks, visited Hidden Valley and the old silver town of Calico. Then there's the Arizona Desert which has its own beauty. We camped out at the top of The Grand Canyon among the pines with the Colorado River a mile below us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
