Another sunny day in Californ-i-a.

Most years, I cannot wait for the cooler months. I associate summer with humidity and allergies, and that wall of heat that hits you when you walk out the door.

Well, summer. I take it all back.

I would give anything for some sun right about now. I try and make it habit not to complain about the seasons, because frankly, they are going to happen anyway… but once in a while, I just get so desperate to feel the sun on my face and the grass under my feet.

Today is one of those days. In honor of summer, here are some childhood photos from the state of 70 degrees and sunny every day: California.
