Anyone who knows me knows how much I detest air conditioning – really, really, really, dislike it. My 2015 LEAF (go, you trailblazer!) only had AC on less than five times in all these years and I doubt the house AC goes on for 10 all summer. Obviously this summer has been a hot mess – literally – so between heat & wildfire smoke, it’s been painful for me to hit that dial. Using the attic fan at night keeps it so cold that FirstBorn complains and keeps his door closed. It does help that I’m surrounded by prairie and trees instead of concrete and asphalt.
