Colorado Is Hitting Triple Temperature Digits This Summer — Easy Keeping Cool Trick [Sponsored]

There are many tricks to staying cool when the heat index reaches "Why can't I just stand here with the freezer door open" stage, but when the summer in Colorado hits triple digits, there's an easier trick to staying cool.

SOME NOT SO EASY OR EFFECTIVE TRICKS TO STAYING COOL:

• Fill a kids pool with ice and ice water and plop in
• Don't dry your clothes, just wear them wet
• Stuffing you pockets with those freezer packs meant to keep your lunch cold
• Every ten minutes go to the restroom and dip your head in the sink and get your hair wet with only cold water, it helps not to dry it (maybe you should not wear white)
• Buy a bag of frozen peas attach them to your back with your under garment sling shot thing, if you're a woman, use an ace bandage if your a man, but that could add to your sweatiness. Once the peas are no longer frozen, put them in the freezer at work until frozen again and repeat.
