I love summer

I love walking out of a building and into a wall of heat. I love taking my shoes off and letting my feet soak up the heat straight from the concrete. I love feeling the sun beating on my skin, warming it to the touch. I love when the heat sinks right into my bones. I love wearing twirly skirts without pantyhose. I love watching everyone’s hair slowly lighten from the sun.

I love seeing people eating at outside tables. I love the smell of a charcoal grill. I love cherries, strawberries and watermelon. I love hearing the Mister Softee melody. I love seeing the sun at 8:00 at night. I love fireflies. I love the smells of swimming pools and suntan lotion. I love a perfectly-turned double play. I love seeing fireworks in the distance. I love red, white and blue bunting. I love old-fashioned woven beach chairs. I love lemonade.

I love summer.
