concert in the park

summer concert in the park. dreamy.

i miss summer already. it is not even really gone yet and i am already mourning my sandals and tan lines. i love a good shift of season don't get me wrong... soon i will be using words like crisp and brisk and getting out my wool beret, boots and potato soup recipe. i will be complaining about football and pulling the kids in the wagon to the homecoming parade.... but summer--- she's my girl. she's the friend you can always count on for a good time. the one with a million ideas and not a one ever falls flat. the one that you drop everything for when she comes into town because
you don't know what she's bringing but you know you want to be there.

our town sponsors free concerts in the park on sundays all summer....
 blankets, babies, friends, irish folk music. can not go wrong with that.

there was dancing.

and wrestling.

and pellegrino.

and general shenanigans.

oh summer you always leave too soon. just when humidity becomes like chicken soup for the winter weary soul. just as i stop blinding myself with my whitewashed limbs. just as i forget what it feels like to have to put my shoes on to get the paper. just as fresh basil and chives right outside my door become a staple not a luxury. 

i will miss you.

come back soon.

BFF
