Sheesh, I was getting excited about standing under a steady stream of water, but the water is so cold!

I'm in disbelief that on such a hot day with the sun shining on me through the screens on the shower building, the water is still too cold!

OK, so I just hose myself down little-by-little and it's still wonderful. I feel like I'm shedding a layer of skin.

It's fun watching brownish water roll down my legs.
