They went to Miami and took a open deck tour w/o sunscreen.
They both got burned beet red. Sun is nothing to take for granted-plan accordingly

Miami is really hot and the sun can be fierce.

We were down there just once in 1965; drove down in a little French Renault with no air conditioning. Husband's arm which was hanging out of the window got totally burned.

I can just picture your farmer's tan......sounds like the kind Vermonters get.
