Chester County: Glorious weather cheers even the grumblers

The Cranky Friend has a particular aversion to those dreadful, enervating heat waves that just drag on and on. He also has an aversion to increasing his electric bill by running the A/C, which puts him in something of a bind. Fortunately the issue hasn't arisen this entire summer because of the delightfully cool weather we've had here in Chester County, and he commented last night that since it's already mid-August the odds are steadily decreasing that he'll have to deal with a heat wave. He sounded almost . . . cheerful.
