One time my cousins and I took a short road trip to a local lodge.
- We had planned on spending some time fishing and were looking forward to the comforts of the lodge.
We used to spend a lot of time outdoors as children so we try to get together every summer for a weekend of fun. We have grown up a lot since our days of camping in the backyard, and we enjoy the luxuries of the lodge. When we arrived at the lodge, we realized it was very hot inside. We assume the air conditioning unit just hadn’t been on very long and didn’t think much of it. We dropped our bags and grabbed out poles. We headed right down to the lake to fish. We didn’t have any luck but we still had fun. We were tired and looking forward to cooling off from the summer heat when we got back to the lodge. As soon as we stepped inside we knew something was wrong. It was intensely hot and even though the air unit had been running for hours and it had not cooled down. We called the HVAC technicians and they promised to be out first thing in the morning for repairs. We couldn’t handle the heat and decided to camp out in the backyard of the lodge instead. We laughed about our situation but the next day the HVAC technician was there and the system was repaired. We didn’t have to spend the entire trip outside camping like kids, but we still had a great time together.
