  1. sweet, sweet, summer
    savor the long days
    watch for shooting stars
    on the black velvet night.

  2. A list to live by! I wanna do everything but the bowling. OK the perfect combo. Do what you want all day, then argent dini, followed by camping out, playing poker for candy by the light of the camp lantern, then lay back and look at stars. YES!! OH, and verbally recap all your favorite monster movies. Heaven. deb

  4. It would be fun to blog the list wouldn't it?!! We shall see though, last summer I fell off the computer-verse for a month or so, and this summer I have to share my computer with Stop Motion Pro and Gamemaker time!

    And Deb, that day sounds dee-lightful! I personally can't wait for banana splits and sandcastles! :)
