OK, this is Texas, it is a place known of the hot summers and this year the summer sun is out in full force, at 8:00am yesterday it was over 80 degrees, I had appointments to show homes at 11:00 am til 2:00... if you have lived around these parts you know we are walking down the streets and around the backyards in 95-100 degree heat. 
This year we have had the typical August dog days of summer hit us in June, 12 days of over 100 degree heat, many record breaking for that day, 103, 104 degrees. No matter where you live, when the thermometer says 103 that my friend is hot, I don't care if it is a dry heat, or a steamy heat, that's HOT!
I found this really cute cute cooler for my back seat that will hold 12 small water bottles, it's compact, made of cordura cloth and features a big Star on a blue and red background. Not only is it very lightweight and insulated to keep cold drinks cold, it folds up when not in use and stores easily.
When I go out with clients I have found that taking a small cooler of water helps us all, we need to keep hydrated and I can buy a 12 pack of small bottles of water at the cost of 3 large bottles at a drive thru. Water is better than sodas because it does a super job of keeping one hydrated... plus you don't have to guess at who drinks carbonated soda, who drinks only natural juice or who prefers sweet tea as to unsweet tea, now in Texas that is an important thing, sweet tea or non sweetened tea.
How do you deal with the summer heat and showing clients in your area, I am always open for suggestions and maybe you have a good trick or two I can use.
