We are done with the heat and are not retiring South
Depending on where the middle kid and his vet fiancΓ© settle, we are looking at permanently settling on either Lake Erie in PA or Lake Michigan in Wisconsin. Wisconsin is colder but less snow than Erie. Both have four seasons. I'm just sick of sweating all the time.

Erie summers are great. Especially if they're on a weekend.

Presque Isle is amazing
My son lived everywhere from 4th to 7th street downtown and was a lifeguard at Presque Isle - he even won the Lifeguard Olympics and is memorialized in the lifeguard post. Days are usually pretty cool enough with a good breeze on the beach. You can spend the morning at the beach, hit the water park at Waldameer, then top it off with an orange swirl at Sara's! My son now lives four blocks from Lake Michigan. There is a decent walkable beach, but the next town North has one of the best beaches on the Great Lakes. Summers are just amazing. No endless weeks of 95/95.

I’m with you. Heat is uncomfortable. Cold is painful.
I’ll take 95 over 20 any day.

You can always put on warmer clothes
I'm stuck of sweating all the time and having the AC on. I hate going to a blazing hot car. The outdoor pool has been cooking for just one weekend and is already too warm to swim another more than lazy laps in. There was about a two hour window in the mornings this weekend where you could actually sit out by the pool before you started sweating. My Goldens are miserable. We have a nice back patio if you like mosquitoes and sweating. I'll pass. I loved last Winter where it was cold for an extended period. I have appropriate clothing. I'm good.

Young me disagrees. Older, present-day me has to agree.

That's pretty good. The new Trane's don't last nearly as long

You have to pay more for a system with a shorter life.
The EPA's 5-5-5 rule! You save $500 in electric bills, while paying $5,000 more for the new system, which will last 5 fewer years...lol

Keep an eye on the weather. When they predict 100 degrees, that's when
it will go out.
