It looks like we're going to get some REAL summer weather this week!!

I see Milwaukee has Dragon Boat races too. Sorry I missed it but my skin can only take one sunburn per summer.

Neat!! "@DCPVideo: Dragon boat races at the lakefront @CelebrateMKE @visitmilwaukee @DiscoverWI @ThanksMKE #photo pic.twitter.com/brTCgLbj31"

YES! It really hurts!!

OUCH! Don't touch me, Babe! What I hoped would be a "fashionable tan" turned into a fiery burn overnight.

Face and arms are burning like fire!  Why I didn't think to wear my famous cowboy hat is beyond me.  It would have saved me a lot of pain.  I'll be wearing it the rest of the summer because I don't need any more sunburn!!
 

ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND IN MY MIND

Do you ever wake up with a song going through your mind?  I did this morning.  It was this song by THE JAMIES.

It was a major hit in the summer of 1958 when I was living in Minneapolis and going to radio school.

 

A SUMMER PAST

SUMMERTIME FUN

WILL THERE BE A SUMMER?

Do you suppose we'll ever see another day like this in Wisconsin?

Who could it be??

Summerfest organizers say they've landed a performer who doesn't plan to play anywhere else this summer. #News3 http://t.co/QxuDvuylkX

GOT A NOTE FROM GLADYS THIS MORNING

"Spring is definitely in the air.  I do love spring and summer but know it presents many jobs I can ignore in the wintertime.  I have started the big job of getting things together to open the cabin at the lake for the summer."
