During the pandemic, my neighbors and I went up on the roof of our building every night. We banged pots with people all over the neighborhood & sat & talked. It was a way to get out of our houses & have a social life.
This summer it's been mostly too hot but we went up last night. The sun slowly bowed out & the pink sky turned to turquoise. Cool breezes & interesting talk.
Suddenly it's not such a bad summer.
