it's officially here, that season I love so much. the one I yammer on and on about. word on the street is that summer has been canceled for portland but we do not speak of this. not at our house, anyway.
more summer over at words to shoot by, friends. no sign of cold grey rain over there, no ma'am.
i'm hating portland right now. let's have a summer party, rain or overcast. . .who do we know with a big place to loan us? we can bbq!
ReplyDeleteI never listen to those tongues wagging on the street. You go and have a summer, and show them!
ReplyDeleteYou can have our summer here in Houston. It's hot and humid - 95+ degrees with 95+% humidity!
ReplyDeleteWe won't have any respite from the heat until sometime in October.
Sorry you're having all that rain but if "up to 15 days with highs only in the 66-76 range" means you have 16 days that are over that, I would totally trade.
ReplyDelete[I will not, however, trade with Houston. That's too hot!]
you poor, poor dear... I'm sending some sun over from South Carolina, too... hang in there! As a fellow live-for-summer-er, I know I would be distraught if my summer was taken away! I'm already dreading the end up of it, and it's hardly started!
ReplyDeleteif summer doesn't come to you ..... go to summer!
ReplyDeleteeven though i wore a wool sweater last week, today summer seems to have arrived. and we are celebrating with flip flops + popsicles!
ReplyDeletemy friends, tony and michael, (the ones who swear they will get together with you) (the ones from baltimore who live in portland) (the ones that you MUST meet!), are visiting maryland right now. they told me about the weather out there...
ReplyDeletemaybe you should follow their lead and come to maryland for some sun! : )
just a suggestion.
oh no! i'm sorry to hear the weather is poo-pooing on summery happiness. perhaps a heat lamp? not enough i know! damn weather! maybe just pretend inside and drink margs anyway, somehow you are bound to forget;) xo
