Summer light

One of my favorite images is sunlight on water, the trail of light and the sparkle.  Summer is the season of light and as this blog finally resumes, the plan for the next several posts is to do what has been a summer staple of this blog: The Summer ABCs. 

These posts too will "keep it light." 

My challenge is to come up with new associations for each letter (for past Summer ABCs check the Blog Archive, Years 2012 and 2021).  Previous alphabets of summer had "Allegheny River" and "All Day" for the letter A ....for this new summer season of ABC's  A is for....

A = Aaahhhh

Summer is the season of a relaxed pace, of savoring the first tomato of the season, of gravity chairs and sitting by waters. Listen closely and you'll hear persons easing into the deck chair, wading along the shore and getting that initial splash of water, floating on a raft in the pool, and that first sip of a cold beer on a hot day ....each exclaim, "aaahhhhh...."  May this summer season now past it's halfway point provide many, many more moments of aahhhs......
