Summer Time Dangers

13 Summer Time Dangers

Here is a link to 13 summer time dangers.  It is a good reminder as we head into the warm, sunny days of summer.  But living in San Diego there are a couple of things I would like to add to the list.  The first and probably the scariest for those of us who live in El Cajon and rural areas is rattle snakes.  They are masters of hiding and you may not see them until it is too late.  So if you are out hiking, walking in tall grass or even moving items around your backyard, use extreme caution.

The second reminder is not something that is specifically for homeowners but it is something we will hear about this summer.  Rip currents can be sneaky so if you are heading to the beach remind everyone to be on the look out.  It is also a good idea to remind your out of town company who may not be aware of what a rip current is, how to avoid them, and what to do if they find themselves caught in one.

The third reminder is sunscreen.  With spring here and the sun shining we may forget just how quickly we can get sunburned.  Use your sunscreen and don't let a red painful sunburn ruin the memory of a great day in San Diego.

I am sure there are many other things that can be added to this list of summer time dangers.  Please feel free to add your own.  Take care of yourself and each other and enjoy this beautiful San Diego day.
