Have a Nice Summer Time. Very good pictures. I live in a beach town in Spain and the summer tourists are starting to arrive.

It's good to have a rest with the whole family. I also remembered my childhood on the beach by the Pripyat River. I built a sand fortress by the water, and the passing barges and hovercrafts made waves, and the waves rolled onto my fortress. It was a good childhood.

A heartfelt and touching read. It’s never easy to say goodbye sending you strength and comfort.

There’s something special about sharing those moments with our families. It's nice that you’re creating similar memories for Smallsteps, they might look a bit different though.

Reading your post made me smile thinking about the different temperatures we can consider and "feel" summer.

I've been home for the past two weeks with the most humid days reaching above 25°.

Next weekend I plan to drive back to Portugal where forecast temps will reach 40°, 😅

Summer in Canada officially begins in July and ends in September. Depending on whether you're heading south or north, temperatures vary between 20°C and 35°C. The seasons are very distinct and there are different activities depending on the calendar. In July, we are used to camping outside. In two years, Matthew will go to camp for the whole summer.

We helped my inlaws open their pool the other weekend, but it is still a bit too cold to go swimming yet. I have a feeling before long the warmer weather will come along to stay and then the pool will be nice!

I really enjoyed this glimpse into your day. That “first swim to shed the winter coat” idea is both funny and symbolic brave of Smallsteps to go in, The old factory spot sounds full of character, and I loved the nostalgic touch about fish and chips on the beach. I hope summer brings more quiet, meaningful moments like this for you and your family.

The arrival of summer is always a beautiful moment. What I do believe is that summer in the Northern Hemisphere actually begins now, from June to July. We are still in spring, so I think temperatures in the coming days will gradually rise.

In any case, enjoying the weather and open spaces with our children is always a beautiful gift—for them and for us. It will be a memory they will always carry in their hearts.

Reading this post felt like a short walk down summer memory lane that first dip in the water always carries a special feeling.

Absolutely as long as the eyes are open and the spirit is curious, there’s always something that adds meaning to our memories.

Shed baby, shed!

HAPPY DAD'S DAY!! :)

Oh gosh your photos are fabulous! They capture her so beautifully. I hope you DO get some time to enjoy the summer. Sometimes its a choice we make - to be mindful of the opportunity to be in the present moment with those we love.

Wow. That picture. At first, I thought it was a compilation of pictures. Graffiti really can be an art. We have many around here, murals mostly. Unfortunately, the unwritten rule of not tagging on top of murals seems to be not valid anymore. The ugliness is taking that over, too.

As I mentioned yesterday, the first swim of the summer is considered shedding the winter coat, and today was that day. For Smallsteps and myself at least. My wife didn't venture more than a toe in, so that doesn't count. Granted, it doesn't feel like the ice that covered the lake a couple months ago, is long forgotten. The temperature was still "quite cold" and even the nerveless body of Smallsteps couldn't stay in for too long at a time.

Dear @tarazkp !
It is bad for your health to suddenly go into cold water on a hot day!
So, I thought your wife's actions were wise!
I guess she is being smart and thorough in managing her health!

I remember the pictures of you swimming in the lakes in Finland last summer. The lakes in Finland were not very beautiful in the pictures!

That is a pretty cool looking graffiti, I am more used to the ugly black writing graffiti that we see around here...

Same here. Every year I tell myself I'm gonna have a chill summer just relaxing in the backyard, but then bills pile up and I'm scrambling for gigs again. The hustle never stops 😅

Oh you really had such a lovely evening. There's something so special about beach food even just fries taste better with that sea breeze. Those childhood fish and chips memories are the best ones to hold onto.
