What is your favorite season of the year? Why? – Oh oh oh, Hand in the air to answer this Daily Writing prompt.
Sum Sum Summertime. Hell yeah, I can’t sing the praises of this season enough. Here in the mid-Atlantic state of Maryland that is mid-May to mid-September. So I’m in my sweet spot right now and looking forward to another great summer.
Getting outside again after a cold winter and cool spring is what I long for. The days of extended sunshine, warm nights with windows open. A good tan and that warm feeling that seems to unwind this body that gets so tight during the winter season.
And best of all the TOP-DOWN on the convertible and cruising with a tee shirt and shorts and being comfortable. Sometimes I think back to the motorcycle days and the summer rides.
Of course, there is the beach in the summer with the family. The highlight of my year. That along with a few day or overnight trips I might do on my own or with a friend. I’ve been going to the beach for many decades and it’s just this incredible internal draw that takes me there a few times a year.
But I can have a lot of fun right outside my doors. I love getting up and walking out to the porch or deck and just stretching out and enjoying nature coming to life.
After some long years at night shift, I figure I’m short a bit of sun so I’m doing my best in retirement to make up for the lost rays of light. And I see the sun out now so time for me to get out of this chair and outside. Have a great day all.
