Pool opens in a week.

Shorts and flip-flops (although I get to wear them now, but inconsistently since weather is still fluctuating).

Heat. More heat.

Heading to the ocean.

More grilling!

Well, here in San Diego I consider the start of summer when the time changes and we have more daylight, so we are already a little ways in. I love the summer though, it's my favorite!!! I love hanging out on the beach every other weekend with a BBQ, volleyball, other odd games, and good friends. Love having tons of triathlons to pick from. I also just love it when it's warm out! I love training in heat. Good times.

Vacation with the kids at Mickey's Big House down there in O'lando. Something we do every five years or so, will probably be the last time we do this as a family.

1) Flip Flops

2) Sam Adam's Summer Brew

3) Dave Mathews at Nissan Pavilion 

4)"Greyhound's Reach the Beach" at the end of the summer. Dewey Beach, DE becomes a city of greyhounds. You're allowed to bring your greyhounds everywhere with you... stores, bars, restaurants, etc. The dogs love it. The wife loves it. I love it when they're happy. Hillarious to see 100's of dogs being walked on the beach and jumping in the water.

5) Skimpy clothes (preferably on women)

Let's see...

1) Long rides after work

2) Getting up well before sunrise to run, since it looks like we're going to have our normal 100+ days Central Valley Summer

3) Flipflops? I wear Tevas or Hydro sandals most of the year here

4) Having fun with my kids when they visit

5) Trips to the beach (going tomorrow, in fact)

6) Making new friends 

7). Keep posting to stay ahead of the Bear.
