Memorial Day Weekend Recap

We consider this weekend to be the official start of summer here in our neck of the woods.  This year, particularly so.  Temperatures this weekend have been in the high 70s, today - 90s (with oppressive humidity, no less).   To celebrate the beginning the summer, we dined outside at a favorite local restaurant.  The food there is amazing...

We stained the outside of the house...

Enjoyed our first official bonfire of the summer...

Went to the  Rochester Public Market...

For flowers...

Food...

And fun...

Today, DJ and I attended our hometown parade where we celebrated the beginning of summer...

Community...

And, of course, our veterans...

Because without all of their sacrifices...

None of this...

Would be possible...

For that... 

My family and I say,

"Thank you."

To summer.
