thursday thirteen

I have never participated in Thursday Thirteen because I have a hard time coming up with a list of thirteen for anything. But I could probably think of more than thirteen for this one. So, here's what I love about the summer...

1. Sitting outside on my deck... enjoying the weather, and the sights and sounds around me.
2. Driving around with my sunroof open.
3. While dining out, being able to eat outside.
4. The evenings. No matter how hot the day is, it always cools down in the evenings and they're beautiful.
5. Thunderstorms!
6. Taking walks.
7. Flowers everywhere.
8. Fresh fruit.
9. Summer movies.
10. Vacation!
11. Bar-B-Q's
12. Going to the pool.
13. Not having to wake up at any certain time because of no school schedules.

Lovely list. I agree with you on #13. Even though I work full time and pack my kids off to the daycare during vacation, no-school-day is stress-free day.

I must agree with all the above! [I'm not thrilled with the extreme heat and humidity down here on the coast....but would much rather have those than 6 feet of snow on the ground!!]

Happy summer.
And I think your 1st thirteen is great!!


My thirteen is shared, hope you can come by and leave a 'howdy-do' in ghe comments!!!

I love summer too -- except that the summer here in Dubai is too harsh!

Summer time is always a "free-er" time when you have kids and get off the school schedule.

Great list. I have the same kind of list - things I like to do in the Summer.

Happy TT!

I have to say I agree with all thirteen of those things. I love spring and summer for all those reasons!!

I agree, I always have a hard time coming up with a topic for TT, so I haven't done one before. But this is definitely a great list!

Have a blessed day!

Thunderstorms?! Really?! They terrify me.

#13 is definitely my favorite!

Great quote for your post!

As I read your list, agreeing with it, I also thought of watermelon and other summer foods.

I wish it cooled down here in the evenings... I used to love summer, but I'm becoming more of a winter girl... as long as I'm in Southern California to enjoy it ;)
