Gratitude List
Happy Fourth of July everyone! When I was a kid the
Fourth of July was always my favorite holiday. I loved it because it took place during that enchanted period of midsummer. Midsummer was safely buffered from school and other "real life" actitives by June on one end and August on the other.
As an adult, midsummer no longer provides the sanctuary that it once did. Every once in a while when I
smell the intoxicating blend of
humdity, Coppertone and plastic pool toys I am transported back to that simpler time.
