Good-bye Summer

So long short shorts, sundresses, sun burnt lips, funky tan lines, dry hair, air conditioning, too hot weather, ice cold lemonade, summer freckles, sight and smell of pretty flowers, summer thunderstorms, cold watermelons, fairs, iced teas, outdoor movies, wavy beach hair, the hunt for the cutest big floppy hats with a girlfriend (we did finally find one), sheer make-up, braids, summer readings, open windows, sandals, relaxed attitude, hours and hours of natural sunlight, cold showers, old windshield wiper, window shopping.

Summer highlights...

SOLD ALL of my paintings

We caught the meteor shower one late summer night.  We located a nice park nestled up in the hills that was hosting a summer night sky watch in the city of Glendale.  It was totally free, all you needed to bring were lots of picnic blankets and friends.  The park provided all the snacks, which I thought was really nice.  From 9-11 p.m people gathered and laid under the night sky to watch the shooting stars.  I spotted six bright ones within 30 minutes, and poor guy only saw three the whole night.  It was his first time seeing a shooting star, so one already made his night.  If you've never done a meteor shower sky watch, I highly recommend it, and scout out the darkest location with the least amount of city lights.  My little sister was sad that she had not known about it so I promised her I would tell her next time.

What was your favorite moment this summer?
