I can't believe school's starting back up, Ernie! Yeah. What happened to summer?!!! Well, Frank we played baseball, swam in the lake, visited cousins, picnicked in the park, drank lemonade, rode bikes, went to camp, played video games, ate s'mores, learned magic tricks, caught fireflies, hiked long trails, gazed at stars, made ice cream, rode rides at the fair, built sand castles, read scary books, camped in the yard, watched fireworks, ran races, flew kites, grew vegetables, did chores, wate
