Cough drop inhibits water ingestion
This morning, for the first time this year, I left my do-rag at home and wrapped my head in a scarf. The high today was 47 F, and it was closer to freezing than to fifteen fahrenheit degrees above when I left. You don't have as much water to get down in cold weather, but it's just as important as when it's hot: if you are dehydrated, you don't generate as much heat, and you don't move it around to where it's needed. It was lunch time when I left Tractor Supply, and five or six miles to the nearest eating house. I didn't want to eat an emergency bar, but there was a Ricola in my pocket -- a little sugar along the way would be just the ticket. As I was rolling out, oh, yeah, I'd better take a sip of water. When you are sucking on a menthol cough drop, water is ka-ha-COLD! -- Joy Beeson joy beeson at comcast dot net http://wlweather.net/PAGEJOY/ |
