We lived in Corpus Christi, Tx for over 20 years before we retired in 2005. I was very surprised they quilted baby quilts without any batting. Wow! It was a real 'wake up' call on the difference between the midwest where I grew up. Dh brought eldest daughter back to Iowa to visit his mother...no air and 105 temperatures...they sweated out that visit! Yes, you may want to dip in the ocean and cool off down there in the summer. Or go to the W. I used to visit four quilt shops there...and had a ball doing it.
They had snow the last Christmas we were there; first snow storm in 100 years. The furnace in our rented house went out and land lady had no sympathy for us because hers was out too. It did not last long, quickly warmed up again.
