The pond near the pasture...
The warm air and heat from the sun bear down on me. I feel the beads of sweat heavy on my forehead, rush into my eyes. They sting and I try to rub away the pain. Sweat builds in the middle of my back and runs down my spine with every step I take.

The heat is not so bad if you know you only need to tolerate it for a little while.
