Gas prices force local family fun/vacations. What's good in your home town?

Cloud, it's a done deal. I've pushed for portable room air conditioners and gotten one so far, more on the way. I just need to be able to open a window to exhaust the waste heat and moisture. We will be replacing the windows as money allows. Once the windows and doors are replaced, A/C will be going in.

We do have an evaporative cooler (seems like a big misted fan to me) but it doesn't work very well. I will be fixing it asap. All I think it needs is a new motor (high speed is gone) and new filter panels or whatever they're called. I replaced the water pump last summer and gave it preventative maintenance at that time. I can make it work but I'm from back East...I need my cool air!

I also know there are a few things that didn't make it onto my list but I can't list EVERYTHING. My opinion of El Paso stands.

I'm not sure we have the same cooler Brian. Ours can cool the inside to 70 when its 95 outside.
