Patio mister

[jp1]

I just realized that "patio mister" would be a nifty euphemism for pool boy...

This reminds me of when we were in Palm Springs in April. We were sitting by the pool at the resort one morning when the pool boy came to add chemicals to the pool, scoop leaves, etc. a French tourist walked up to him and in perfect French/English dictionary translation form asked ‘excuse me mr. Pool chemical technician, how long after you complete the servicing of the pool should we wait before we can safely re-enter the pool?’

Mister update. At the moment it’s 101 degrees and 19% humidity. I turned the mister on half hour ago and our backyard is now 76 degrees.

I’m as comfortable now as I would be sitting out here at this time of day on a normal day where the high was in the mid 80’s. This is one of the best $16 purchases I’ve ever made.

wow! that is a stunning difference!

wish we here in 85% humidity land could use those thangs...

With the humidity this low the temperature difference between mister and non mister areas seems to be about 25. It’s now 95 according to our weather station and 71 in the backyard.

That mister sounds fabulous.
