Billy I'm with you I can cool down so much faster than heat up and I'm a sun junkie plain and simple!
The sun is better than therapy to me and in the winter on sunny days you can always find me laid back in front of which ever window has sun coming in it and if the right time I'll fall right to sleep.
I made sure that the house being built had windows facing the east, south and finally the west so me and that damn cat can fight for the sun.
Anything below 70 is suicide lol!

Jim,
Although I handle the heat better than most quadriplegics, I am still not able to handle being in direct sunlight for extended periods of time if the temperature is too high. However, I have found the air conditioner is one of the best inventions ever made. It allows me to go from my air-conditioned house to my air-conditioned van and then to any other air-conditioned building. During the rough part of the summer I tend to spend only about 15 to 20 minutes outside at a time. I am able to sit out for extended periods of time if I am not in the direct sunlight. You are much braver than I am living up there. When he gets below 70� I start to get severe pain in my neck. It doesn't seem to matter how warm I keep the house, it has something to do with atmospheric pressures I guess.

Lori,
I would be able to handle the 70 degrees and low 80s with no trouble at all but once the temperatures hit 90 and above I start to have troubles. The hot weather for me is like some on the quad list trying to deal with the cold weather that I deal with.
My lift normally moves pretty slow the first thing in the morning when the temperatures are below zero but this morning with the temperature at -34 it did not want to move that all. Waiting for the lift can be a pain but there's not much we can do about that.
