for those of us in the Northern hemisphere enjoying summer this is a chance to put down a one liner that explains why it is summer.

This is for one-liners, no big long essays, only one small picture in a post, and keep it light.

(Those in the Southern Hemisphere may either wait six months, or start a thread along the lines "It must be winter because...")

It must be summer because car alarms are going off at random with nobody in sight...

You mean to say that people in the northern hemisphere are still allowed to use those things? :-O

Cheers.

It must be summer because the kitties are shutting down some crunchers due to the heat.

Because I was standing out in the sun for a couple hours yesterday, taking pictures of the Trolley Parade at Illinois Railway Museum. And I forgot to put on some sunblock first. Fortunately, what was exposed had already tanned from previous, briefer, exposures.

I'm not sure if that doesn't come within the bounds of TMI ;-)

It's only head/neck/arms. And I was wearing a baseball cap to keep the sun off my face (somewhat).

It must be summer because -
- The schools are all closed
- it's 110F in the shade
- many of my fully-retired neighbors have gone to the coast.
