Summer is almost ending for most of the kids around here, but I still have a whole entire month of summer vacay left, and I’m enjoying every minute of it.  My mother very lovingly woke me up today and twisted my arm until I agreed to go walk three miles with her.  I decided to ONLY because she asked nicely. 

Today I also took an old friend kayaking down the Little River.  Too bad I don’t have pics to share, but after 3 miles of paddling, my arms are hurting.  It was a great way to cool off today with the heat index being well over 100.  Boo hot summer!

THEN, as if my day wasn’t already super cool, the 9 year old that lives down the road from me called me and asked me to go ride bikes with him!  Umm, of course this cougar said yes!  I love sweaty dates! I told him I’d only go if he took me out for ice cream afterwards.  Apparently, 9 year olds have empty pockets these days.
