Summer time in Lewistown

It has been great getting out in the mornings now that the weather has improved, hearing and seeing all the signs of activity and energy coming alive in the community.  Yesterday there was a little league tourny in full progress at one end of the park while a huge Midrivers customer appreciation picnic was being set up at the other end. Every neighborhood had painting or roofing crews working away on houses. Across the street they have been working on remodeling the old donut shop  for weeks. We have no idea what business is going in there. The preschool on the corner has more little ones than ever out side screaming and having a great time. Today there were people streaming to the garage sales on many blocks around. Something about summer that just makes the world come to life.  Guess it is even more noticeable after the long winter that has everyone huddled up tight inside just trying to keep warm.  Summer time is just too short around here, but boy we all really appreciate it that much more when it comes!  Even me after only one month of rainy,cloudy, cool weather.
