Well, we’re pretty deep into summer and things are going. Sure, I’m writing this up in early June, but I know what’s coming. Sadly, I’m sure it isn’t an author contract, a billion dollars, and/or a good night’s sleep. Anyway, I’m sure I’ve barely been around due to the busy schedule. Figure now is a good time to see how everyone is doing . . . I hear you guys making cricket noises!
- What’s the highlight of your summer so far?
- What is a cherished summer memory?
- If you could take one thing from another season and put it into summer, what would it be?
With any luck, I’ll remember to answer this before it goes live. If not, I’ll reply to comments and then add my own answers once I get home. Have fun.
1. All those wonderful peaches.
2. Endless camping with extended family when I was young.
3. Pumpkin beer.

Good ones. Although, I don’t know if I can deal with more Christmas. It already starts appearing around Labor Day. Then you have Christmas in July. I’m waiting for it to spam the whole year.

LOL Not Christmas ITEMS. (Those hit the stores WAY TOO EARLY.) I just wish people would be more generous and kind hearted.

Ah. Weird how we talk like those are almost exclusive to Christmas. Maybe being Jewish causes me to miss something.

1. What’s the highlight of your summer so far?
I’ve been working a lot, so I haven’t really traveled anywhere. In my spare time, I’ve hung out with friends, so that’s pretty much the summer highlight.
2. What is a cherished summer memory?
Traveling to Wujiang and Shanghai to teach English at a camp for middle schoolers. We worked really hard. But it was an amazing experience.
3. If you could take one thing from another season and put it into summer, what would it be?
More apples and apple cider donuts! I know the growing season involves cooler weather. But I often think of apple picking, which doesn’t happen in summer!

Apples would be great. Especially sliced and dipped in chocolate. 😁. Great memories.

I’d put cooler weather from spring into summer. That heat wave wasn’t much fun traveling! 🤨
