The value of air misters

This was the picture of me Tim was taking when that nice man came along and offered to photograph both of us (previous picture). We attended this reception on the DQ and had a great time, but the one problem was that it was incredibly hot outside. We had first gone inside for a cheese spread, but that, although delicious, ended up being boring. I usually just wear shorts and a T-shirt at home, so was dying in a jacket (which I had to wear due to the skimpy camisole) and wool slacks (and shoes!). I found some of those air misters and parked myself under one of them, and it was delightful because not only was there moisture but cool air as well. I’m sold on them!

Very nice portrait, Helen and, if I'm not mistaken, I count 9 of those misters in the frame. Fun evening but for the heat. Vote.

Great to see you enjoying yourself, Helen.

Nice capture of you. Yes, air misters work great in very dry climes. They are a staple at most outdoor patios (commercial and some private) in my area.

you doo seem over-dressed for hot weather...if you are sold on misters you would love Vancouver, where there is often a lot of moisture falling through the air...
