Thanks to the Little Halloween last Friday, I'm starting to feel a tug.

There is a little, tiny, pioneer cemetery down the road from my brother's house and I took the time to stop by yesterday and say howdy.

I discovered that I was born exactly 140 years to the day after one of the occupants!

I'm definitely feeling the bug.

All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

Feeling it a little as well. Looking forward to summer, but I can't help but think that Halloween is merely 5 months away. Not only that, but merchandise will start being seen in roughly 2 months.

Hey cool find Andy! One of the death days on those tombstones is July 23rd! Which ironically enough is my birthday. :lol: (granted I wasn't born in the 1800's :P But still)

My boyfriend shared this with me today: http://boredomtherapy.com/weird-skeleto ... 555Haunted which gave a bit of a Halloween feel.

But in all honesty I'm not feeling much of the bug yet. I'm still feeling more forward to Summer season than anything right now. Guess I just don't want to rush the year away.

Ships log, June 6th, 1816:

"Patience and perseverance have paid off, as the natives have accepted me as one of the tribe!

In fact, tonight I am to be honored at a feast designed around me!

Truly this will be a once in a lifetime occurrence!!"

Sometimes during the summer I catch myself day dreaming about my fall activities but I try to just enjoy the seasons as they happen. But once we hit the "100 days till" mark I start to get pretty jazzed.

Would that be negative 80 and above?

This is the time of year I start watching for 'Spirit Store coming soon' signs. The location down by the Sports Arena where one was last year is still empty so every time I drive by I crane my neck to look and almost wreck my truck. I love the end of summer, Halloween store hunting season.

Our weather has turned cool and overcast, so naturally I searched for Autumn pics and found this.

Only a few months to go!

I've been watching a few horror movies on DVD, but I am not trying to get into the mood just yet. I am trying to focus on summer, July 4th, and domestic projects I want to finish before the next holiday season. I am getting up early to swim laps 2-3 times a week. That feels like summer to me.
