Le Summer Solstice

SUMMER is officially here! The sun was at its highest peak today at 2:06 PM (eastern, of course) giving my shadow a much needed break. Being well out of school and unemployed at the moment one might think I am unable to fully appreciate the beginning of the summer, but one would be wrong. Bring on the beach, the BBQ's, the flav-o-ices, the sand in the car, the sunscreen running dry, the lightning bugs, the frozen rum drinks, the tan lines, the aloe for the burn lines, the heat, the humidity, the finding friends of friends of friends with pools, the warm nights, the firework displays, the inevitable weddings, the ice cream truck's daily arrival and ceaseless anthem, the laziness and the love!
