Car windows down, wind-blown tousled hair, a warm dashboard for a footrest, stereo turned wayyy up
44oz Mountain Dew slushees from Speedway for only 89¢
Walking barefoot on green grass
Burying my toes in warm sand
Splashing and piggy-back rides at the lake
Ice cream and burgers at our local ice cream parlor, Mullens, on Main Street
Late night walks on Main Street in the heat and all the traffic lights flashing
Laying on the hill and gazing at the stars
Catching Lightning Bugs and then watching them fly away again
Sleeping in
Waking up early and watching the sunrise on the front porch with a bowl of cereal and my dog
Running through sprinklers in the backyard, fully clothed. And tossing water balloons.
Dancing and splashing in pouring rain
Watching lightning in candlelight, instead of watching TV
Cut-off jeans and flip-flops
Summerfest in Milwaukee, Riverfest in Watertown
4th of July, fireworks, sparklers, parades and flags, cream puffs, funnel cakes, corn dogs, and cotton candy
Farmer’s Markets with my dad
Playing in dirt and smelling flowers
Cook-outs with people I love; and the smells of fresh-cut grass and charcoal
Love Always and Forever,
Shy Lee Zephyr

Running through sprinklers is THE BEST. Haven't been able to do it for a while - Australia is in its worst drought ever and we're on pretty tight water restrictions, so sprinklers are a massive no-no. Bum :(
