Wednesday September 28, 2016

We are easing out of the latest heat wave here in San Francisco, but if years past are any indication, the hottest days may be yet to come.

I’ve rounded up fifteen ideas for what to do the next time the temperatures reach the 90s and air conditioning is nowhere to be seen.

 

 

 

Do like everyone else and pretend we live in San Diego and head to Ocean Beach

Or, pretend you live in New Jersey and head to the Santa Cruz boardwalk
