Arizona does it different

Day 73
​Phoenix AZ- Day 17

We took a 3 day weekend off from working at grandmas and did a little shopping. Katie has been flipping through all the local Goodwil stores in order to find some cold weather clothes. Houston winters still get chilly and we simply are not prepared for the weather that lay ahead. While out on our little trip we drive past a grocery store and I see something I want to share. This is a normal thing down here in Phoenix. The parking lot for the grocery store is entirely shaded.

It's just another example of people adapting to the local environment. Obviously this roofed parking was put into place to stop cars from spontaneous combustion in the summer heat. Last summer it was so hot here that they grounded some flights from the phoenix airport because it was too hot to fly. I want this to be clear. It gets so hot here that physics do not allow air planes to develop lift because of the air density. This is a sign. Move north.

Solar panels make for a good shade structure
