The heat that radiates off the Texas sun during the summer is no joke. You can either stay inside 24/7 with the A/C blasting as high as possible or you can actually brave the outside world to find the closest, nicest body of water possible.
There are many outdoor activities to choose from across the Lone Star State, both natural and human-made, that are sure to cool Texans off.
