Summer is here.We had a good run at spring.
Stayed cool for quite sometime.
Now, the suns wrath is upon us.
I'm almost cherry red in spots and my face burns with sun, sweat and grime.
Rail dust is a fine abrasive that seeps into every pour of your skin.
Old timers teeth, all ground to nubs.
Eyelids chaf and have micro abrasions, sweat burns like acid.
Let's not talk about lungs.
Given enough time and effort, I could probably cough up an anvil.
Or at least a useful hammer.

So it goes, my 28th summer. 14 more until I am free.![]()
That got dark really quick, but a nice recovery at the end.
