Sometimes, it's hard to explain how Summer Vacation works. They say it stars when Memorial Day hits and ends when Labor Day begins. Is that true? When did that start? Because summer doesn't really start until the 20th or 21st of June. So....is it now Summer? Because it doesn't feel like summer. Not with all the cold rain we've been getting.
School is almost over; Graduation has begun with certain schools. College, high schoolers and kindergarteners having their graduations happening. Kids will soon roam the backyards to the playgrounds or even get summer jobs to save for money for college. Back in my day, we spent most of the summers outside. Times have changed with technology taking over.
The days will be longer, the nights will be shorter, and even hotter. Once August hits, I will see Halloween candy in grocery stores. I don't know why, but they push the holidays closer and closer with each coming year. Now, it's Summer's turn.
Going to the beach and spending our days and nights looking out at the stars having a wonderful summer. I know it won't last
So... why is a day that we remember who we lost in battles in wars the unofficial start of summer? Who knows. We don't even know why Labor Day ends it. It's just strange that summer is almost here and will slip through our fingers. Our Vacations to the 4th of July which will also...become the start of showing back to school ads.
It doesn't matter what season, it's gonna happen no matter what. Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter have their quirks. Summer being very hot as winter makers you freeze to death. It's just a thing that all of us have to deal with. We complain it's too cold, tne too hot. In between...you either are allergic to certain parts of the season, or not. For me....I'm allergic to Spring pollen.
June is coming, summer is coming, It will soon be here, then it will be gone. Que Sera, Que Sera. What we should enjoy...is every moment of our summer before the Halloween Candy is seen and the school ads are shown.
Summer is right at the foot at our doorsteps, and I feel.... we should embrace is. I feel the summer is just beginning.
