Summertime

Here in Minneapolis we are experiencing a record heat wave combined with unusually high dew points, levels that have made it necessary to issue a heat warning until Wed. I am thankful to have a window A/C unit and a fan to keep things livable in my place for my kitty.


My favorite version of the song "Summertime" by George Gershwin, from Porgy and Bess, sung by Billy Stewart in 1966.

Billy Stewart's songs were popular in the Bay Area when I was growing up,I remember slow-dancing to this song in high school.
