Some neighborhoods have it made in the shade – and some don’t
By Shawn Vestal, Spokesman Review
It was 109 degrees on a Wednesday afternoon in Hillyard.
Sierra Delgado, her aunt and her kids were in the front yard, trying to find a bit of relief in an above-ground pool and the dim shade of a Russian maple.
“We wouldn’t survive out here without this tree,” Delgado said, sitting in a lawn chair under the maple. “The pool’s in the direct sun, but us adults usually sit here in the shade. It helps.”
