summer was usually too short

Waiting, I was waiting so patiently or may-be not so patiently for that first day it was warm enough to sunbathe, warm enough, and not too hot.  I would stretch out on an old frame cot and soak up the rays. It was a time when sunbathing was still considered a healthy pastime.   and the warmth of the sun felt so good.   It was as if the sun was imparting it's special powers to me and as I  basked in old Sols warm glow, I drifted off, the back yard became my "beach" for the summer.
