Remembering
- Sitting by the Andrews Air Force Base swimming pool while my kids practiced their laps for swim team
- eating watermelon. Mama would not buy a watermelon before July 4 - saying they weren't ripe
- wearing strappy sandals
- going barefoot - feeling the heat of the sidewalk, trying to avoid burrs, the feel of warm sand between your toes
- running in the hose on hot days - especially liked it when we had the rotating sprinkler on
- going to the beach
- home grown tomato sandwiches - thick juicy slices tomato slathered with Dukes mayonaise between slices of white bread.
- the sweet smell of honeysuckle on the vines covering fences.
- sitting on the front porch in the evenings
- the sound of metal floor stand occilatting fan stirring up a breeze in the living room.
- tall glasses of iced tea with a layer of white sugar granules on the bottom of the glass.
