Remembering Summer


Summer time memories Posted by Picasa

playing kick the can until dark
catching tadpoles and bringing them home
finding salamanders
hot summer afternoons without a breeze and the cicadas singing
sandals and bathing suits
backyard swimming pools
hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, watermelon and kool-aid
picking blackcurrents and helping Grandma make jam
Dairy Queen chocolate dipped cones
picnics, potato salad and boiled eggs
blue, yellow, pink and green melmac picnic dishes in the old wicker basket
sleeping in and staying up late
multiple trips to the library and oodles of time to sit and read
family, friends, cousins

These are a few of my favorite things to remember of childhood summers.
