The sugary sweet aroma of honeysuckle heavy in the air; late afternoon sunlight flickering through shifting leaves and branches; shimmering walls of heat rising from asphalt roadways; house cats sprawled lazily beneath blooming shrubs; these are the things that announce summer more surely than any calendar.
Couples strolling lazily hand in hand; chains of bicyclists pedaling along the shoulders of highways; sturdy shoes replaced by sandals and flip-flops; children licking streams of melting ice cream from tapering cones; these are sights that announce summer more surely than any weather report.
Welcome to the glorious days of summer.
