Summer Evenings (Aug '09)

What I like about summer evenings …

Long days – when it’s light out until past 9:00.
Watching boats, water skiers, and personal watercraft on the lake.
Seeing hot air balloons to the east of us in evenings.
Watching sea plane after sea plane landing on the lake in the evenings.
Going to the pool when it’s warm or hot in the early evenings.
Sitting on the patio in the cool of the evening, when by cool I mean about 80 degrees.
Eating grilled meat for dinner, with melon.
Eating frozen fruit bars or drinking root beer floats or margaritas.
Taking the kids to Dairy Queen for dessert.
Sleeping on the top of the sheets with no blanket or bedcover.
Watching fireworks, nearby and fairly far away.
Watching the bright lights of the planes as they take off & land at SeaTac.
Having windows open all over the house to cool things off.
Having no worries about getting the kids to bed early, getting their homework done, quiz practice or music practice finished, or determining who needs their lunch made the next morning.
