While there are many of you who love the summer heat and fun, if you are anything like me, you’re fed up with this particular summer where everything is out to get you. Let’s agree for the next few moments to sit back, relax and remember all the parts of summer that we love and are still am trying to enjoy.

Oh, and make yourself a yummy drink to sit back and enjoy as well. You deserve it.

“Live in the sunshine, swim in the sea, drink in the wild air.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

“One must maintain a little bit of summer, even in the middle of winter.”

Henry David Thoreau

“In early June the world of leaf and blade and flowers explode, and every sunset is different.”

John Steinbeck

“Summer has filled her veins with light and her heart is washed with noon.”

C. Day Lewis

“It was June, and the world smelled of roses. The sunshine was like powdered gold over the grassy hillside.”

Maud Hart Lovelace
