Is BYC Experiencing Cabin Fever?

And all I remember is sweating and mosquitoes. Your summer sounds better.

I guess it’s how you look at it.

If Indiana is like Wisconsin there's no shortage of bars either. Some towns are just bars here.

Or bars that are THE restaurant And HOTEL... The only other full on bar is at the nudist colony... Um er Clothing Optional....

That sounds like an interesting situation.

Yep she is was a force of nature.... born in 1916... Her oldest brother was off to fight in the war.... WWI. She didnt meet him till she was ten. She worked as a Rosie the riveter during WWII. One of the first women to be offered a job in engineering in the post war days.

She fired three husbands ... and stayed with the fourth. He was a sheet metal man and she was an efficiency expert for one of the airforce bases... I forget which. We all were in aviation in some form or other.

Here in San Diego Aviation was Big plane Tooling and Rockets... I worked on the Atlas Centaur Commercial retrofit.

But I Digress... Grandma thinks I am a failure because I didnt get a government job and didnt get married... Never mind that I worked my way up to Manufacturing Engineer... Sigh.

Summers to me are a cacophony of colors across a parched landscape while I sip tea in the late afternoon and read To Kill A Movkingbird for the 1000th time. God I love summer. Lightning Bugs, frogs croaking, the quiet mood from the cows across the road. It’s just a magical time for me.

Wow are you a writer I could see it ... I got goosebumps up one arm....

You're a romantic... You'll never stay single saying such beautifully descriptive things.

Hmmm....I'm experiencing the polar opposite of cabin fever. All I want in life is a good, fluffy, lasting accumulation of snow, but does it stay around? No! Warm weather, everything melts, temperatures drop 20 degrees the next day, we're left with a natural ice rink, and I'm forever falling on my butt (as if that doesn't happen enough already without ice ). Vicious cycle. Honestly makes me crabby.

how SAd. The World does not Stop for you at 40 years and 0 days, but so many expect it.

You're a good man Porky. Only a real man would acknowledge that the fear is real.

My hubby acknowledges it. He tells people I’ll climb him like a tree.

There’s that Agree-to-disagree thing.
I could do with a very brief “winter”. I like to see snow, but about a week is enough of it for me.
