Summer is for the Young at Heart
Summertime is one of my favorite times of year and my memories from this time of year are wonderfully nostalgic ... don't forget what it's like to be a child, it's really important.
From my earliest memories, summertime in Texas means watermelon and cantaloupe, ice cream, swimming, riding my bike, and being gone all day looking for trouble … as long as I was home before dark.

It’s currently Sunday afternoon and despite the constant lure and distraction of summer activities, I’ve already had a productive day. I’ve responded to about 50 emails, written and sent out a proposal for a new project, spent more time than I wanted reviewing a construction schedule for a project that isn’t progressing as quickly as it should, and still managed to go on a bike ride, swim in the pool, catch a movie, and prepare dinner for the family (shish-ka-“me’s” if you were interested). ...
