"When the long, golden shadows of sunset stretch further and further. When our skin is dry and salty and brown and red. When the wind gently blows the sand along the pacific's edge, from the dead, brown lands into the bright blues.
This is the final season for the yearly journey I've been on. Summer, (for me) is bitter sweet..."Summer was like that for me as well, mostly because of school. I would be looking forward to summer: the beach trips, D-land trips, volleyball games, hanging out with friends, etc. But once those last few weeks or days crept on the end of my vacation, it would start to be depressing. I'd be forced to begin thinking about registering, class schedules, school supplies.
Tomorrow (to me) is the first day of summer*, I don't want to think about fall right now. I want to be swept up in the season of sun...if Salinas ever allows the sun to break through the clouds.
*The actual first day of summer, this year, is June 20th...it is supposed to be the day that the sun is farthest north.
