Happy Happy First Day of Summer 2025!!

Warm nights, lightning bugs, the croaks of a nearby bullfrog, soft rain through a screened porch window, the smell of river water mixed with sunscreen, sand between my toes, and delicious, quick to fix, summer food (salads, corn, roasted veggies, and hot dogs). I’m always reminded of my growing years–bike rides in the heat, kool-aid, marshmallows, fresh peaches, mac salads, and quick meals. Oh the many afternoons I spent laying on my back on our lawn looking up at the sky. Listening to the lowing of our dairy cows, cicadas in the tall grass, and the songs of the the Song Sparrow w/ the distant whippoorwill and buzzing bee.
Happy Summer Everyone
