It's winter here in Australia so I'll let you know when summer comes around but my favourite past time has to be to go for a holiday to the south coast at batemans bay.
I love summer and spring. Spring gives me the fever and I LOVE having the fever!! Fall - I love the beauty of Fall. Winter - not so much. I live in California (never snows) but it's still too cold for me. Husband and I love to cruise and I like to go to Mexico when it's winter here because we can leave out of San Francisco (near-by) and it's beach weather in Mexico. This summer we are taking the train to Seattle - should be fun.
I am not particularly a summer person but since I started school, I like not going lol the two months off for summer holiday, I like that. I also like going to the beach, even though there is never a bad time to go to the beach as I live in the Caribbean but summertime is beach time and everyone knows!

What a sacrifice!! I mean, TO LIVE IN THE CARRIBEAN ON A DAILY BASIS!!?? (sarcasm)
Do You even get "winter" there?
If not, maybe I can make the same "sacrifice" one day. My dream would be to have warm, mild weather year 'round.
LOL! December, January, February is cold (not like u guys cold but cold enough to wear a sweater) but we don't have winter. Sometimes I would like to see the magic of snow, build a snow man and all that LOL. Its nice to live here though, especially going to the north coast i.e. the tourist locations, its beautiful, beaches everywhere! You should come, bring specialmom and Londres with you.
Anna
1000 Thanx for the invite!! I would LOVE to come and it couldn't be better than being in the company of SpedialMom and Londres!! The four of us together??!! Whoa!! What FUN!!
Paris is the most beautiful city during the Spring; everything blooming and so much color from the flowers.
Hey Anna....that sound super. :<)))
Are You inviting Us to Paris?? And then, when We are done with the Caribbean and Paris - I invite You All to San Francisco and Sausalito!! - I GUARANTEE Good Times and BreathLess Sights!! Have any of You been to San Francisco? If not.....it's time!! We can wait until SpecialMom's Boys have grown up - or Better Yet - Let's include them Too - memories to last a lifetime!!
Come anytime ladies (Tink, Anna and Specialmom). We can walk down the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, shop and then grab something to eat.
Yes, I have been to San Francisco......that was long ago. I was about 10 then. I loved that Fisherman's Wharf. The food there was delicious too.
Can We eat at one of those outdoor cafe's that Paris is so famous for? And can We see the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
If You All come here I will take You to Sausalito - You won't BELIEVE the Beauty and the Quaintness of Sausalito!! We will go to San Francisco too - Fisherman's Wharf is still there, of course - and I'm sure You were Enthralled as a 10 year old, but You NEED to Experience it today as an kAdult. And We will take a tour of Alcatraz and We will ride the Cable Cars and We will see and cross the Golden Gate Bridge and We will go to Pier 39 and the Wax Museum, and the list goes on and on.....it's never ending - so plan on staying for a LONG visit. I await the arrival of You, SpecialMom, and Kayannaboo with bated breath!!
1000 thanx, SpecialMom - This has been Great Fun!!
Whoaaa!!!! Dude, Paris. Now there's something I can get used to. Well, I can imagine people talking to me and I just look blank and dumb cause I wouldn't understand a word
If we visit Londres in Paris . . . we don't need to eat in a cafe. Her culinary skills would be worth traveling for alone from what I've been told!! Anyway, I booked my flight an hour ago. Hope that is okay . . .
Or San Fran. I've spent some time there but it is a favorite. The Caribean would be just fine too. I'm in and in.
Sadly . . . I do not have a wonderful destination to offer you ladies. Just little old me, my house in suburbia Mid West and some kids to entertain you in the backyard. You are welcome to come though and we'll MAKE it exciting!
Things I love about summer . . . oh, my garden. It is going really well this year. I've had not so good years, so I am having high hopes for this year. I've got things setting on the vegi plants and have already filled vases with cut flowers. This makes me smile just thinking about it.
We get passes to this amusement park that is about 10 minutes from my house. so fun and my kids LOVE it. They have a big pool and hanging out at a pool is right up my alley.
And we will go to the Lake. Fond memories of Lake Erie every single summer of my life.
Some days we get to sleep late and we have an occasional "home" day. We do nothing but hang out at home without a care in the world. Stress free and all about just being together and relaxing.
Those are some of my special summer things.
Thanks everyone for posting!!
We will have to go to Italy to see the leaning tower of Pisa. :<))

OMGolly, Silly Me!! I knew that - but Yeah, maybe we could all go there too??
SpecialMom
Your invite sounds WONDERFUL!! too!! - and a great opportunity to get to know one another!! (except, we kinda, sorta know one another now but it would be fun to put faces to the names!!)
I'm there ladies,when are we going?
I like spring and fall. Not too big on extremely cold or hot. Hot is ok if in water. Wish I could afford to go back to sicily. Sunny with little to no humidity it seemed. I used to enjoy walking around on the island.
We are going to let you set the date when we should go :<)))
Am i invited. I'm too poor but I nice thought if I'm invited! He he (:0).....
Hobby, where do you come from? Maybe some will want to stop by your place.
Hm. Missouri. What's going on in Missouri in summer?
Usually in July it's just scorching hot all or most the month. He he. Where do u live at special mom?
