summer is...

...shorts and flip flops.
...naked feet covered in sidewalk chalk.
...ice cream dripping off of cones and onto the hot concrete.
...bbqs and picnics.
...hauling around hoses and mowing lawns.
...celebrating the fourth of july; one nation, under GOD, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.
...hanging out on the patio swing whilst the kids play on the swingset.
...playing "snake in the grass".
...working on new and old bonsai.
...sitting under the growing wisteria at night with the clear lights lit in between the leaves.
...garage sales.
...doing crossfit with the big door open.
...walking around barefoot.
...warm nights.
...long days.
...cool breezes.
...freshly cut grass.
...lightning and thunder storms.
...smell of a summer rain.
...swimming and wakeboarding.
...open windows.
...air conditioning.
...iced coffee.
...hanging out in the freezer section at the store.
...going to the water's edge.
...the beach.
...sunburns and popsicles.
...angels baseball.

i love summer
