Summertime and the living is easy

(note to self put a video of someone doing summertime, everyone has done it)

This one is excellent

and so is this one

but we have discussed this all before

you and I

The Summertime wardrobe  

when I was a kid

consisted of the following 7 items

underwear

which had to be clean

because

you might get in an accident

I don't understand the connection

now

I didn't understand the connection

then

a bathing suit or trunks if you prefer

my mom made our trunks on her sewing machine

cotton, reversible and with a drawstring waist

the cotton rotted in the sunlight and saltwater

they lasted a season of 24/7 use

Nancy Katin (a very nice person btw)

changed all that

with an industrial sewing machine 

and nylon 

a tee shirt

white

they came in other colors

but no one ever wore them

no design / graphic / endorsements

jeans

Levi

maybe a pair of cords

flip flops

19 cents at Savon

lasted between 2 weeks and a month

then they broke

and you were barefoot

sweatshirt

night time or early morning use

surfers would get the hooded model

a sunburn

a bright pink

pre cancerous glow

for the months of

June, July, August and the beginning of September 

not exactly wardrobe perhaps

but you wore it

it kept you warm

so I'm including it

good times
