Song of the Day 3
Day 3 – Song that reminds me of a summertime day
Today’s topic for Song of the Day 3 challenge is to name a song that reminds me of a summertime day. When I was young, I remember looking forward to summertime because my family would go to a small beach at the lake for swimming.
The song of the day 3 that reminds me of a summertime day has to be Summertime, Summertime, Sum Sum Summertime. This song was sung by The Jamies in 1958. The group got its name from lead singer Thomas Earl Jameson, who wrote the song with the lyrics.
Back in my early days, there was no such thing as a community pool or even a family pool, we would take a dip in the creek or a washtub! This is the creek where all the neighborhood kids would swim on a hot summer day. We went back “home” for my 50th high school reunion in 2017 and I snapped this picture of our old swimming hole! It brought back summertime day memories when we went back to see it.
We moved south in 1994 and when our grandchildren came to visit we now had the entire ocean to swim in! This is my now almost 33 year old grandson when he came down for a visit when he was 8 or 9 years old.
Do you have a special summertime memory? Or what do you look forward to doing in the summer?
