With water bottle when nursing hives

[Finsky]

.
When I handle hives, a big water bottle or two are handy in operations.

When hands are sticked by honey, washing hands is splended.

Sting poison is good to wash from hands.

During hot weather I drink  a lot because hives are in hot places.

When it is awfully hot, I pour water on my hat, shirt and throusers.  It keeps body cooler.

It took a lot of years before I learned to wash all the time hands when I extract honey.

Yes, waterbottles are of great importance in the days of Florida summer.  It took me about 45 minutes of work without hydration in July to start vomiting from dehydration.  Lesson learned: "Always have water on hand."

How hot does it get in Finland?

How hot does it get in Finland?

We have limit of hot weather +25C .  That is reached 10-15 days per summer.
The highest tempereture ever measured is +35C year 1914.

Last summer was very hot and hottest day was +32C

When hives are in sunny spot, hot is different to us when in shadow.

People acclimate, just like other animals.  I grew up in Oklahoma, scooping wheat at 100F (37C) and above.  Now, after living in Alaska for 20 years, I'm miserable just sitting in a chair at that temperature.  I've seen it break 90F (32C) in Alaska once.  Usually the low 80's (around 25C) is as hot as it gets, but that miserably hot when you're acclimated to an annual average temperature of 25F (about -4C).  I can definitely sympathize with Finsky wanting to cool off at those temperatuers.

We have in rooms 23C temperature and 2 fast internet machines and TV. Channels are only 10 good, no more. Video store is over the street.

My hives are 100 miles to east. I need not wonder how they are.  Today we had -10 and wind. It was good to walk ouside in white snow.

Life is such when you cannot shoose your relatives. - We have 2 inch snow here now.
