      To begin with it wasn't that hot it is today as per my mom. We really had perfect seasons unlike summer part 1 few rains during summer 2 and then few days of cold wave during summer 3 that we have now. And yes the houses were built to keep cool during warm temps and warm during winters. It seems they didn't even have mosquitoes and flies back then. And used well water for domestic purposes and lake water for drinking. This was in 1960s and early 70s.
