Little league games just finishing as the sun begins to set. The eerie glow of a dogwood as dusk approaches. The tune of the Mr. Softee truck as he makes his rounds in the neighborhoods. Children playing till the street lamps buzz to light. Grass being mowed. Grass that needs to be mowed. Families walking after dinner. Windows open with a soft, clean breeze blowing in, purging the staleness of winter from the corners of the house. The need to keep up on one’s pedicure. Scholastic book fairs at elementary schools. The countdown to summer vacation begins. Sleeping with the windows open. Spring cleaning and yard sales.
