It’s a little late, but today has been pretty busy. Just to let everyone know, I’m going to be on vacation from July 17-23. Posting will be slow during that time, but when I get back I am going to be back on a regular schedule.
For this weekend’s survey, why not tell everyone what your three favorite summertime activities are?
Here are mine, not necessarily in order.
1. Cooking out (okay, maybe that really is number one).
2. Baseball
3. Swimming
Thanks to all who stop by and participate. I hope the next few days are good to you.

1) Swimming–when I get a chance to! We used to have two relatives with pools, and now neither one have pools, so I don’t get into the water as much as I would like.
2) Grilling out–I got a nice gas grill for mother’s day, and I’ve been using it like crazy.
3) Not having to wear jackets or coats!

Wearing sandals and open-toed shoes.
Grilling…I actually do it in the winter too, but it’s way more pleasant in the summer…no parka!
Sitting out by my pond in the evening.

Gordon,
I have not thought much about what my favorite Summer time activities are, but i suppose the first would be staying cool. I love Summer, and for me it is easier to stay cool than to get warm; secondly, probably getting together for family gatherings; last weekend we had all our kids and grandkids here for a family weekend, and to celebrate my wife’s fiftieth B-day; third, even though i do not have one, i still prefer it as a means of relaxation, and fun, and that is riding a motorcycle. I do ride anytime i get a chance by borrowing from a friend or something like that.

(but only if the hot dogs are black and covered with mustard and onions)

I share 3 of your summertime favorites, Gordon. 2 of them you named in this post:
Cooking out (’cept I can’t afford charcol).
Swimming (’cept I don’t like to get my hair wet).
This one you didn’t mention, but I notice that, like me,you like to make excuses for not blogging regularly.

From some of the replies here (*cough*jada’s gigi*cough*), I’m reminded of this cute little joke:
There are three types of people in the world: Those who can count, and those who can’t.
