Summer is the earth’s way of apologizing for putting us through so many months of freezing cold and cruel spring snowstorms.

It sure isn’t going to last forever.

Just don’t forget the repellant to keep our unofficial state bird away.
Of course, we eat custard all year around but, in summer, we get to enjoy it with the perfect melt.
