Hot summer days

The earth bakes with natures own heat source. Sweat seeps from ever pore, while hot air burns it way into the lungs. Flowers wilt and leaves hang from the trees.

Popsicles, air conditioning, ice tea, swimming pools, fans and porch-swings.

Heat exhausts a person! My friend lives in Arizona and she doesn't mind the 113 degree weather -she is nuts! Her thermostat loves Arizona, mine - Alaska!

Each season brings it own pleasures. The heat of summer brings homemade ice cream. I will endure it just for that. Fresh peach, strawberry or blackberry or... For some reason I want pie and ice cream now.

It is back to work on Monday. I can't wait to get back into the swing of things.. I miss all my friends.
