Summer Vacation - Beautiful Bear Lake, Utah

Since I have nothing profound to say or interesting stories to tell, I thought I would post some good summer quotes for everyone to enjoy...

Being a child at home alone in the summer is a high-risk occupation. If you call your mother at work thirteen times an hour, she can hurt you. ~Erma Bombeck

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass on a summer day listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is hardly a waste of time. ~John Lubbock

"Nothing is more memorable than a smell. One scent can be unexpected, momentary and fleeting, yet
conjure up a childhood summer beside a lake in the mountains..."

"Blessed be the Lord for the beauty of summer and spring, for the air, the water, the verdure, and the song of birds."
- Carl von Linnaeus

"A break in the heat away from the front no thunder, no lightning, just rain, warm rain falling near dusk falling on eager ground steaming blacktop hungry plants thirsty turning toward the clouds cooling, soothing rain splashing in sudden puddles catching in open screens that certain smell of summer rain."
- Raymond A. Foss, Summer Rain

"After winter comes the summer. After night comes the dawn. And after every storm, there comes
clear, open skies."
- Samuel Rutherford

"What a beautiful, sunny morning. It makes you happy to be alive, doesn't it? We can't let the sun
outshine us! We have to beam, too!"

"People take pictures of the Summer, just in case someone thought they had missed it, and to prove that it really existed."
- Ray Davies

"Summer afternoon - Summer afternoon... the two most beautiful words in the English language."

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer so far!
