Summer is in the air. What do you smell?
Summer is the sweet, starchy scent of warm, grass clippings.
The salty smell of long, lazy days on the beach.
The musty stench of sweat after a long, hard day's work in the sun.
The crisp smell of sweet air during a gentle wind.
The bitter scent of bug spray before a day in the woods.
The fruity smell of sunscreen before a day in the sun.
The stale odor of sweaty dollars earned.

Can you smell it in the air?... Summer is here.


This story inspiration is from my brother who told me what he thought summer must smell like. He was right. Can you smell it?
