We headed up to Brushwood Folklore center for the Solstice and Jolene's birthday with just about all of our camping friends. Technically, we were there Friday night till Saturday afternoon when the summer became a reality at 6am.

The whole time I kept dreading it some weird way, thinking that summer starting takes us that much closer to winter.

(e:yesthatcasey) and I almost died of allergies. I had to shower twice on Saturday because my nose just wouldn't stop dripping from the wind blowing over the fields of blooming grasses.

Overall though, the fireflies there were amazing at night and it was fun to run around naked in the fields during the day.

I doodle on the phone sometimes. Each one is so affected by the conversation.

I want this ring so bad.

Someday, I am going to retire and become a jewel dealer so that I can get a chance to try on the jewelry.

Its exactly like it was when we were kids with rooms right down the hall on the same side from each other.

Its a weird mix of furniture. My old childhood bedroom set, his old childhood bedroom set, my parents dining room set, and my grandparents living room furniture.

I really wish it was always summer.
