Porch sleepin’

I only did porching sleeping, that I can remember was at my aunt and uncle's. They had a screened in porch, the house sat just a couple of hundred yards off the Wicomico River in a tiny town in Maryland. It was the place of fairy tales in my mind as a child. Falling asleep with a cool breeze and the sound of the water hitting the shore.

We did camp a lot as a child but there was nothing like being there!

@Jules why? Because it’s that time of the year when it’s cooling off at night, and the air feels fantastic. Our neighborhood is quiet, the air mattress we inflate is almost as comfortable as our bed. The crickets and the frogs are soothing white noise, we can hear train whistles off in the distance, and we’re snuggled with each other under a couple of soft quilts. Ron has his gun just in case.

I mean, what’s not to like?

lol..you'd get the same effect if you stayed in bed and opened the windows...:ROFLMAO:
 
We always slept on the screened-in porch when we were kids. As soon as it started getting hot, my dad would set up the bunkbeds and that's where we'd sleep. Our bedrooms were up in a converted attic and it was hot as hell up there in the summer (and cold as the Arctic in the winter). The porch was paradise by comparison. We'd have a fan running to make it even better.
