Kids are go back to schooling and we are in the altitude of Florida ’s high temperature and rainy season . My hope is , with all the rain , we are still able to get some piece of work done . I encourage you to verify you are practicing safe work habits while dealing with the heating . Heat exhaustion is not to be messed with and can very easily lead to serious injury or dying . Everyone is susceptible to it . Unfortunately , I know it about two weeks ago , but , luckily , I knew what to do . Please verify you cultivate yourself and your staff on how to protect yourselves .
