What can I say? It’s hard to say goodbye to summer.
I remember those long last days at the beach in Delaware, trying to get sunburned so your tan would last long enough for the start of school. Squeezing tons of lemon juice—and later Sun-In- on my hair to make it more blonde. Finally when home, Mother would wash my suit one last time and then put it in the bottom drawer until next year. Photos from the instant camera get taken to the drug store and developed, then looked at once, and put away in a box.
I can almost smell it all.
love this!
Me too. It's been ages since I thought of my own summers, when I too put lemon in my hair. It was a bit messy with the seeds and little chunks of fruit....Love the drawing. Thanks for all this.
