Summer is a love letter to lots of things - AM cottage radios cycling fast past the lake Life’s Been Good by Joe Walsh yucky shorts worn too long the absence of socks the stars and the moon and some beer on a patio long difficult novels you’ve pretended to read during other summers, but “this summer will be different!” an old drive-in they haven’t torn down yet mini-golf and broad hats new drugs someone gives you and why not, you’re on holiday in Ibiza! Archie comics lost sunglasses digital guilt and analogue nostalgia visiting uncles soccer tournaments and very nearly catching a baseball at a Jays game mediocre ideas warmed by the sun good ideas that come to you after a long mid-afternoon nap the smell of grass and the taste of lake water Court and Spark on cassette the Saturday paper read seven times front to back a single glowing cabin lamp creaking wood and croaking frogs tire dirt a symphony of winged insects stuff your dad bought 50 years ago for the outdoors and naked bums, seen when you least expect to see them.
