Normally, I would continue to golf, swim and bicycle (my main outdoor activities) but simply do so fairly early in the morning. So many people stayed here this summer and continued to golf that my friends and I ended up having to golf late in the morning or in the early afternoon. That didn't stop us from playing but we did make a point of drinking a lot more water and wiping our faces off periodically with damp cloths kept with ice in our coolers. We sweat like pigs, of course, but a round of golf is still better than being bored at home!

Indoor activities like watching TV and movies, reading, listening to music, etc., continued unabated by the outside temps. The only thing different was the lack of social club meetings (many of whom take the summers off even in non-Covid-19 times), the lack of music at the squares and the lack of films at the theaters.
