Summertime

Wikipedia Definition: Summer is the warmest of the four temperate seasons, between spring and autumn. At the summer solstice, the days are longest and the nights are shortest, with day-length decreasing as the season progresses after the solstice. The date of the beginning of summer varies according to climate, culture, and tradition, but when it is summer in the southern hemisphere it is winter in the northern hemisphere, and vice versa.
One of my favorite songs is Summertime by DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince. It is the perfect song to cruise around with the windows down, going about your daily business. Today with gas prices the way they are, perhaps we don't cruise for the sake of it, but being outside and having this song playing makes you feel so good. The original music from this hit is  "Summer Madness", a popular hit released by Kool & the Gang in 1974. A great song on it's own. I listen to both.
Today in Wisconsin, it is not feeling like summer is coming soon. Needless to say, these songs warm the mind and body. 
Whatever the weather in your neck of the woods, enjoy it with a smile.
