There's just something about days like today.......days that bring you back in time to sweet memories. Of times of pirates and princesses, cowboys and Indians, of tree climbing and berry picking. Of summer long boating and brake your neck tubing, claming on the river and bonfires at night. Blueberry pancakes on Saturday morning and wave jumping in the afternoon. Trips to the park candy store (25 cents would buy a bag) and ice cream drips on your favorite shirt. Of suntan lotion and sand forts (Aunt Mary: where did all the lawn chairs go?!?!). Fart Quest adventures and hiking the dunes, dinner for 20 or so and the smell of the grills, and watching siblings rock out to "lolly pop" and "great balls of fire" on picnic tables, guitars 'n all (aka: brooms) .................summer days and summer nights......I pray that I can give my children memories that they will remember on days of "blue skies and sunshine"
