Fading Daylight

Can someone please tell me where the summer went!? I move out in three days and start school in a week! There's still so much to do, I feel as if every ray of sunlight is precious time. The days of bare feet and suntan lines are gradually slipping away. My goal this summer was to not allow myself to be bored for even one day. Well, I'm happy to say that I definitely accomplished that goal. However, I've been so busy that the thought of "hitting the books" again is no where in sight. But with only limited days of freedom and sunshine, who could blame me? My favorite part of summer is the beginning. The excitement for the unknown of what adventures will occur in the 2 1/2 months of careless fun. Never is one summer quite the same as another. And as I look back on this past summer, it may not have been what I had anticipated or expected, I might not have spent it with the people I intended or done the things I assumed I would; but it was no less enjoyable, rewarding, or spontaneous than the last. And although I'm going to miss my numerous trips to Seven Peaks, Snowasis, and my beloved cabin on Hebgen Lake; I couldn't be more excited to begin and document a completely new adventure--college.  So until next time (which will probably be when I can officially call myself a BYU Cougar!!!) That's all folks!
