I've had a love for Summer for some time. I first publicly documented this love sometime ago in a blog post entitled, "The Summer is my New Boyfriend". (Below is a link to that post.) Now, I think it is more accurate to say that the Summer is my tried and true lover with whom I've having an intense affair.
Since I live in
Pittsburgh, my time with Summer is fleeting. Also, as a mother who works full-time outside of the home, I am pulled in a lot of directions. Many of those directions involve attending meetings in conference rooms that have re-circulated air. So, I spend a great deal of time indoors staring at the sun but unable to feel the heat.
I savor my summer experiences.
For these reasons, I savor every moment that I get to spend enjoying the summer. I try to run along the
river on most mornings. Feeling the
sun shine on me and the intensity of the sun reflecting off of the water energizes me.
Because I can't get enough of being on the river, after work we generally walk or run along the river too. So, often, I get two doses a day, which is a great treat.
Even though we've had some storms we've had a hot summer full of sunshine and it seems like it will never end. I know that Summer won't last forever. So, I have been chronicling our Summer in photos!
Finding sticks is great fun!
