Bring it On

It's currently 95 degrees outside. We were out and about enjoying this beautiful spring day until about 1:00, when we felt it come on. It's the first real HOT day and it is sinking in...it's time to get ready for summer. Arizona is unlike anywhere else, 110 degrees is our typical summer weather. The smell of sunblock, chlorine, sweat and cooked skin. The scalding steering wheel when you get in your car. Enormous electric bills to keep the house cool. LOADS of laundry containing swimming suits and towels. Then there is the FUN in the sun, swimming all day, watermelon, icy cold drinks, flip flops and shorts.... BRING IT ON!

The swimming and the ice cold drinks sound fun!! Wish it would just stay 70 degrees here in KY. :)

How funny.. two KYians in two comments! Since it was 45 and raining here today I will live vicariously through you! Enjoy the sun for us!

Living in Texas means living with HOT summers. I am ready for summer but not the heat! :)Have a great week. Give Owen hugs from us.

Many Blessings,

Amanda

I enjoy summer for that same reasons. Thank goodness Tucson is usually about 10 degrees cooler than Phoenix - although I would be back in the Phoenix area in a heartbeat if given the chance!

Have a wonderful week. You continue to be in my prayers.

So not fair. It was an okay day here in good ol' Utah, but nothing like yours.
