How Hot Is It?

Does the inside of your car feel like a sauna? Is every fan in the house turned on? Is your pet pooped? Are you exhausted from the heat?

Here at Cumming Patch, our brains are overheating just thinking of ways to beat the heat, so we're leaving it up to you.

In the comments, finish this sentence, "It's so hot in Cumming..." and if you have a picture to share on how you are staying cool send that to liz.kennedy@patch.com and we'll feature it here.

We'll pick our favorite phrase and the winner will receive a free iced coffee or smoothie from and Patch tote bag.

Of course we ask that you be "cool" and keep things "PG" but we also want you to give us your best stuff--so do tell.
