Summertime, Summertime, Sum-summer, Summertime

On my own mental calendar, the last day of school and the Memorial Day Weekend mark the beginning of the most glorious time of year: Summer.

Yeah, I realize that things get really hot here in Texas during the summer, and that tends to make some people a little annoyed. But, by contrast, Summer nights in West Texas are absolutely glorious.

Snow cones. Swimming. Daylight until 9 at night. Late night basketball in the back yard. All the baseball and soccer I want to listen to or watch. Homemade ice cream. Grilled burgers, steaks, and chicken. Fireworks. Outdoor concerts. Whats not to like?

Fresno is similar. Crazy hot during the day but evening's to die for.

Here's hoping my ACU-bound niece has more Fresno summer nights in her future than Texas summer nights. I miss her and she hasn't even left yet.
