Summer has begun...

Some mark the beginning of summer by the calendar...

Some mark the beginning of summer by the last day of school...

Some mark the beginning of summer when the temps are consistently in the 90s...

I mark the beginning of summer by the annual Fireman's Parade and Carnival.

As a young girl, we'd gather every Thursday before Memorial Day at Grams' house. She'd have a spread of food fit for a king. The meal was complete with fried chicken, Utz Cheese Doodles, and Knackal's desserts.

My uncle and his family would come into town for the event. Then, we'd all meander down to watch the parade.

Summer has begun.

Tonight, we were in the parade and ate at the carnival for dinner. We had so much fun while the weather was gorgeous.



Moral of the Story: Summer has begun...
