one glimpse of a summer's night....seems maybe but a dream this morning

"In a Wonderland they lie, Dreaming as the days go by, 

Dreaming as the summers die:
Ever drifting down the stream- Lingering in the golden gleam- 

Life, what is it but a dream?"
— Lewis Carroll, Through The Looking Glass

 At one point yesterday the car said it was 99 degrees outside - was it lying?

Before the sun fully set - and after dinner - Lucy girl, Mr. D and I sat out on our porch with our neighbors

and just like that Spring had vanished and Summer was here. 

And while today's stormy clouds have brought Spring weather back, 

we glimpsed how wonderful this Summer will be...

when warmth lingers even in the fading light

and neighbors amble about outside.

Bicycle wheels, lawn chairs and bubbles floating by. 

Soon... once Summer has fully arrived, we wont be able to pick up our little Lucy anymore....
