Parting is such sweet sorrow.

Summer is almost over. Goodbye to the carefree days. And to swimming until the boys are blue and wrinkly. Goodbye to the luscious tomatoes and sweet, sweet corn.
I’m not ready to say farewell. I am rebelling. I’m packing the car and we’re going to the beach for one last hurrah.
Don’t tell me it’s over. I want to see the boys laughing in the ocean with their pink cheeks (all six sets). I want to see the sand castles and the sand crab refuge.
I want to eat steamed crabs like only Marylanders know how. And to drink Sea Breezes on the porch after the kids fall asleep exhausted from the sun.
Only then will I be ready to say adieu.
Que sera sera. Actually, Summer is around for another month – along with the luscious tomatoes, sweet corn, and abundance of fruit. Just don’t tell the kids!
Sounds like a great trip. Have fun. And be careful in the surf.

Sounds like a blissful way to say goodbye. Enjoy!

Move to Florida. Summer lasts alot longer here! And none of tht pesky snow either. Oh sure, there’s hurricanes. No state’s perfect!
Don’t say adieu, just say a bientot, because there’ll probably be another summer next year!
