Baseball.
Sunbathing.
The last tulips.
Flowers wilting in the heat of the day.
Kids counting down until the last day of school.
Teacher husbands counting down to the last day of school.
Roses peeking red and purple and pink from the green buds.
The whir of the blender as it mixes smoothies.
Walks in the park.
Squirt guns.
Fun.

Ah yes, the wonders of summer. Can you believe this weather? From the 60s to the 70s to the 80s to the 90s in 4 days! Seemingly, from walking the dogs in fleece to walking the dogs with bare arms, in a matter of days! So strange. Just heard some creepy global warming facts, including that the hottest 10 years on record in the world all occurred in the last 14 years, the hottest ever being 2005. That doesn't sound so great!
I was wondering where you were. ;)
I love summer. All the big things in my life always happen in the summer. I even almost named my daughter Summer. Almost.
:)
Laini - looks like the spell will be broken. Rain is back in the forcast. Well, it is Oregon - we knew it couldn't last!
Amber - Thanks for noticing that I was gone! :) That cold had me knocked out for a few days and then It was tough getting caught up with work and housework! I'm so grateful for good health - I hate being sick!
This is lovely and just what I need on a rainy, pre-Summer day! Thank you for sharing your words and pictures--you make me anxious for those impending long, hot days!
Aaaahh...lovely. It gives me hope that maybe we'll see the sun again someday soon here too!
