A-hey-am-ma-ma-ma, A-hey-am-ma-ma-ma-heeeeeeey-a!
We live on the desert side of the Cascades, but you wouldn't know it lately. We've had rain at least every other day for the last two weeks at least. My lawn is about two days from being classified "Dense Undergrowth." People are cursing the rain.
In two months from now we'll be burning up in 100+ degree heat and wishing we could see any rain at all. There's just no pleasing the denizens of the high desert.
Summer is just around the corner. The schoolkids are restless. The evenings are fragrant and beckoning (when it's not raining). Mornings dangle the promise of a new day like Willie Wonka introducing "The Chocolate Room."
Ah, to be a kid again, when Summer Vacation meant something. Now I have to dig out "Dandelion Wine" if I want to recapture the magic of a new summer about to be born. I need some new tennis shoes.
Litefoot then, Litefoot!
