THE THINGS WE DID LAST SUMMER

While looking for a new memory chip for my camera I discovered one I’d set aside half used.  On it were photos I’d almost forgotten, taken during a family gathering last summer.  They are just what I needed to remind me of sun and warm and fun at a time when winter’s dark and cold are really dumping on the gloom.  So here for your Christmas cheer…

Fun in the sun.

Cousins gathering at our city splash park to cool down on a hot afternoon.

Water slides, fountains and our super cute grandkids.

More kids watch from the sidelines.

Two little guys watch some big guys break dancing and decide they’ve got moves of their own.

Check this out.

Match this one.

Feel the beat!


And now to show off my very first ever GIF animation is ---ta-dah!

WATER NINJA!

Well! I guess the Water Ninja showed that spout who was boss!

Those are great photos.
Isn't it ironic about digital photos how we think we're keeping everything and in fact it gets so easy to forget or lose them?

Ah, summer, it seems so far away - thanks indeed for these reminders that it is going to be warm and sunny again! :D

Such a contrast to your current couple of feet. I know, I know. It can't be summer year round, so I won't wish.

I almost got a sunburn from this post. I liked it when it was 80 above zero instead of 80 below. Great pictures to bring back great memories!
