- clear blue skies, warmth, gentle breezes
- evenings without bugs
- beaches and pools and swimming and sand without sunburn and rashes and swallowing bad water or getting swimmers ear
- camp fires and smores
- BBQ and cold salads and lemonades and fresh fruit and frozen treats
- family and friends and parties and picnics
- naps
- books and board games and baseball
- bike rides
- walking into sweltering heat
- sweating
- walking into cool air conditioning
- boats and lakes and sailing and hammocks
- umbrella drinks
- photos
- reunions with long ago friends
- lazy conversations and vacation post cards
- vacation anticipation
- coming home
- sleeping with the windows open
- cool nights after hot days
- sunglasses and the smells of sun screen
- bubbles and kites and blankets on the grass
- outdoor concerts
- tiki torches and patio parties
- beer in washtubs of ice
- bare feet
- sidewalk chalk and scraped knees and summer love
- freedom
- farm markets
- fire works and root beer floats and county fairs
- staying up too late just because
- sunsets
- thunderstorms
- playing in the rain
- sunrises
- birds
- flowers and green grass and trees with leaves
- tan and freckled and peeling kids faces
- the smell of the pool on the hottest day in August
- the super darkness of a movie theater in the middle of a summer afternoon
- road trips and surprises and butterflies
- unexpected kisses and magic moments
- the feeling of knowing you're making a memory the moment you're doing it
- feeling alive
Time for you to play along, add to the ideal summer heaven list. I can't wait to hear what would be on your list!
