Our choice of topic's:

Topic #1: August! Summer in full swing. Write about your favorite day this season, maybe a vacation day, or a favorite BBQ party. Any activity that you have had this summer.

Topic# 2: As Summer begins to wind down, write about what you are thinking about for Fall. We would like to hear how you arrived at or how you were inspired to make these plans.

Living in Florida with the high heat, heat index factors, and sloppy humidity, I have two favorite places to be.  In the air conditioning and in the water.  We have the most beautiful beaches, including Siesta Key that was recently named this Nations Best Beach!  The waters are truly like those from photographs.



In my opinion, the best time to enjoy our summer at the beach is at the end of July and the beginning of August.  The sun is higher in the sky, the air can feel drier, but the tides can get incredibly low and sandbars abound! 

It is nice to stroll while tanning, stop for a dunk to cool down, gulp icy cold water carried from home, and maybe an ice cream cone from the pavillion.  Afterall, if you get messy, just jump into the Gulf.

What is your favorite summertime activity?
