WEATHER
Alright Summer, let’s do this! I’m in 100% and ready for the sun and the heat and all the #GoodThings that come with it. 🙂 We are now unofficially into the season and today’s weather is cooperating nicely. Look for partly cloudy skies, very warm temperatures and a lovely moderate evening tonight. And the next week of weather looks almost exactly like today! Enjoy it and celebrate with an ice cream cone this afternoon. #GoodPlan
