How do you like to go up in a swing

Whew! It is pretty hot around the cul-de-sac lately. But somehow just looking at this 4-picture blog post made me happier and cooler at the same time. [I confess to viewing it several times just to see that last photo!]

How do you like to go up in a swing,

Up in the air so blue?

Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing

Ever a child can do!

Up in the air and over the wall,

Till I can see so wide,

Rivers and trees and cattle and all

Over the countryside—

Till I look down on the garden green,

Down on the roof so brown—

Up in the air I go flying again,

Up in the air and down!
