It looks as if we are finally going to be getting some summer weather here in Northern New Jersey (could it be because a friend from Kentucky is due to visit today?). To get us in the mood for hot, steamy weather . . .
. . . I've got a few of the zillions of pictures my daughter Anne took this month when she was on Guam, singing in the Pacific Music Festival.

Anne called me on her first day there. It was 5 AM in Guam, 7 PM the night before, in Jersey. She had waked early, and so as not to wake her roommate, went out on the balcony of her hotel room to watch the sunrise.
At 5:15 . . .
At 6:45 . . .
It was a busy couple of weeks, with rehearsals and performances,but Anne and her cohorts managed to squeeze in a lot of fun.
They swam in the Philippine Sea:
Same beach, looking toward land:
They hiked the jungle:
Swam in a "hidden pool" in the jungle:
One of my favorite shots -- a coconut, fallen to the beach. Look closely;
there's a baby palm tree growing out of it! I never think of coconuts as giant seeds!

Crazy wacky looking fish, just swimming in the sea:
Anne was charmed by Guam, and the people who live there; they are gracious and generous. Plus it was nice to be 7500 miles from home and able to use U.S. dollars!
Happy Summer! -- Cass
