Melting

Mother McCree we are in the thick of summer now!  On the weather forecast today they said we usually average 22 degrees, but not lately. 

I for one, and I'll also count in My Beloved for two, sure hope that Tuesday's predicted forecast will be spot on.  Heck, since I don't do heat all that well, am loving Wednesday's prediction even better.

I leave you with a little clip from "Summer Holiday" starring Cliff Richard. I know they left this version off the list above.  My Beloved and I saw this movie in 1963, the first summer we started dating.  I'm pretty sure it was my choice.  I still love the ditty.  Enjoy!
