Exactly and thus the reason some old people enjoy the heat and can tolerate very hot summers. What is not clear is why some oldsters here trash the beautiful winter weather the younger crowd and some oldsters still enjoy.
I know lots of elderly people who wouldn’t think of moving to Florida because of the weather. They have great social networks, don’t have to shovel their own snow, have established Drs and medical facilities, faith communities that aren’t the size of Yankee stadium and so forth. Why can’t people just be happy for others?
