This evening is one of those shimmering bright unstained weather days. The air is cool and clean; the sun is bright; the sky is clear. It makes you want to walk forever and just absorb it all into your soul. The bugs were dancing in the streaming light.
Two boys were on a side road with a lemonade stand, bikes lying any old way in the grass behind them. No video games or music playing. They weren’t raising money for any great cause; just budding entrepreneurs spending a nice almost summer evening outside.
Anyway. It reminded me of childhood summers: forts and creeks and baseball and woods and bicycles. Swimming. Watermelon on the back patio. Fireflies.
