Winter Flushing

I think this country can officially say winter cold is so yesterday and the summer heat it here!  It's the time when we all shed.  We shed our coats, we purged our homes during spring cleaning, our clothing covers less ground and the meat comes out...I mean for the grill!  After our skin has that initial exposure time with the sun, it's then we being to shine.  Blah's and blues are melted away.  Cool beverages and splash time wake us up.  We turn all shades of red, tan, brown and blush.  Painted toes, sunblock on the nose, our grass grows and everything about us...just fades to glow :)

This being the first week of our summer vacation, I am thrilled to welcome our official start to June, July and August.  This is one of the last works I had been working on right before my camera tanked.  I do have a new camera that I look forward to working with this summer.  As upset as I was that I wasn't looking to replace my good buddy, I know that timing is everything and with my future business plans hanging in the balance, this was probably a blessing in disguise.  As we pack up this week and head out for the rest of the summer, you will be getting a tour of our travels documented by all my great and not so shots with my new friend.  This will be my summer school, so I ask that you grade me on a curve!

Have a wonderful, happy Mon Day :)
