how can anyone hate summer. i've finally been out the last couple of weekends after being stuffed indoors since november. it's not even the cold during the winter...it's the lack of sun that's the kicker. even when the snow finally went away, it rained the entire months of april and may. gray, wet and still cold. we were supposed to have a backyard project at our house done by memorial day. they haven't even started yet because of the rain. it's been awful here. i can't wait for those sunny, roasty days.
