Us Wisconsinites finally got a taste of summer this weekend. It was the kind of weather that makes you wonder if you really have school the next week. I am so use to the cold days here in Madison that I often forget about the entire summer season. It doesn't help that I usually don't stay in Madison in the summer, but winter still has a way of erasing our summer thoughts. So when that temperature rises to 70 degrees, those thoughts slowly creep back. I think that everyone has an activity that pops into their head on the first warm day of the year. Some just like to read a book outside, get some sun and relax, or go for a bike ride. While all of those are great, my summer activity is definitely to play baseball, and this Sunday I did just that. I guess it stems all the way back to my childhood where my baseball league practices would start up in the spring and the summer would be met with games every week. Playing ball under the bright lights on a warm summer night will always remind me of being a kid. It is one activity that I hope to someday share with my kids the way my dad did with my brother and I.
Logically, with all these thoughts about summer, I spent very little time on homework. I am sure some of you have similar stories and I want to know what your favorite summer activity is.

I miss watching you guys play baseball at Aztec. YOu forgot to mention in your post that those warm summer nights were really more like super hot nights 90degrees plus. This is the time of year when its exciting to be in Wisconsin and here in AZ we are just dreading what's to come...
My favorite summer memory is sleeping out on the trampoline.
