Summer is a time when you can relax outside, have BBQ's take a walk along the beach, but these days it just doesn't seem to exist because of all this rain, and to add insult to injury now that the rain is gone you can't take a walk on the beach in MA because its closed due to Red Tide. For those who are not familiar with Red Tide it is exactly that, reddish hue in the water that is full of bacteria, you cannot swim in it or eat any kind of shellfish that is in it unless you like hospitals and doctors and getting sick.
I cannot remember a summer that has been this bad and frankly I don't ever want to see one ever again. Now mind you that summer has just begun, but if this is any indication of how its going to be the rest of the time you can bet I will not be happy. My family and I live to go to the beach and run in the sand, make those crazy castles and walk along the getty. This is what we look forward to all year, and this is why I moved home away from Brooklyn, so now I say to mother nature.. come on and give me my summer bliss, I work hard all year, you can at least give me 3 months!!
By the way this is a new print I just created for my summmer rant and I hope you like it, I am going to put some of the individual shell icons as prints in my shop. So stayed tuned for that. I hope the rest of you are having some fun this summer...! I am hoping I get mine in too!
Have a great weekend all.
