Summer doesn't start til after the 4th?


Blogging must be what I do to stay in touch when the weather is bad and the skies are grey because I have been much too busy enjoying this summer weather we waited so long for to sit down and blog. Is anybody out there still reading this??!!
Let's see, since I last blogged I have :

Been to the beach with Rod and my two adult daughters
Camped with all my children (sounds like a soap!) at the annual Cooper campout in central OR
Hosted a Indian food potluck at my house last night
Still to come is:
Trip to TroutLake Wa this weekend
(maybe get back in time for our little parade and festival in the park here in town)
Annual church campout at the beach
Rod and Erin's birthday bashes
Labor Day family weekend plans

Whew....so many things to cram into the few weeks we call summer in Oregon.

My Mom Zona used to always tell us when we would complain about the cold weather in June, "Now you know that summer doesn't come to Oregon til after the 4th of July"
The problem is that shortly after the 4th you start seeing summer clearances and school supplies in the stores! That is just WRONG

What is summer like at your place?
