I think I am going to squeeze every ounce of summer out of this month! Summer around here is absolutely the best season. I spend the rest of the year counting down until summer. I am someone who cherishes seasons, and being from New England and East Coast- all the seasons are celebrated. Since we have lived here...maybe I am just getting old, but I don't enjoy 2 season of the year at all!!! Winter and spring are dreadfully long, cold, and grey...I think the grey is what gets me. Summer, though, not a cloud in the sky, everybody is constantly doing something or travelling, coffee on the porch, gathering together, no schedules, all to fit in 2 short months! So here are a couple of pics from the last week or so.....me trying to fit it all in our last bit of summer. I decided though, being the dreamer that I am, if I owned a motor home then summer would definitely be extended! We would do September school travelling and I would put snow tires on and .....get out of dodge!

| Apricots from a friends yard...jam! Blackberries from a spot near our campsite...jam!! |
 |
| Big deal- Joseph learned how to mow the lawn. |
 |
| And Annabelle had to be a part too... so they both learned how to mow the lawn. No we do not have 2 mowers, we borrowed the neighbor's. |
 |
| The same neighbor came home with a bear!!! Lots of excitement for us. |
 |
| Just a taste of where we live :) |
 |
| Found a fun place after a soccer tournament, Birch Bay. It reminded us of the Boston North Shore! |
 |
| Everyone decide to swim with all their clothes |
 |
| One of my beautiful girls! |
 |
| As I said...full clothes! |
 |
| The highlight of camping for the soccer tournament....a 3 inch slug we found! |
