• I am a Summer Fun Teacher in the afternoon because that's when I go in my pool, read, blog, watch TV..., but I am not traveling the world, I'm just enjoying my own little corner of the world at home - which is my favorite place to be in the summer.

2. It's a sunny day in July. Your schedule is wide open, so you decide to?

*  I would spend the day visiting my friend, Patty, who has a cottage at York Beach, Maine.  I try to get up there once or twice each summer because I love to eat lunch at the Goldenrod and sit on the beach in the afternoon.

3.What is your favorite summer thirst quencher?

* I'm really into flavored sparkling water these days.  I really love the raspberry/lime flavor.

4. Where will you be soaking up the summer sun? Have you planned any vacations? 

*  My family is spending three days in Nantucket during the third week of August.

5. Any summer reads, professional and personal?

*  I highly recommend this book:

Here's the overview from Amazon:

 From the highly acclaimed, multiple award-winning Anthony Doerr, the beautiful, stunningly ambitious instant New York Times bestseller about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II.

Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History, where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great-uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel.

In a mining town in Germany, the orphan Werner grows up with his younger sister, enchanted by a crude radio they find. Werner becomes an expert at building and fixing these crucial new instruments, a talent that wins him a place at a brutal academy for Hitler Youth, then a special assignment to track the resistance. More and more aware of the human cost of his intelligence, Werner travels through the heart of the war and, finally, into Saint-Malo, where his story and Marie-Laure’s converge.

6. What does your summer TV habits consist of?

*  I enjoy watching The Dog Whisperer, NY Med.  I don't watch too much TV in the summer.

7. Favorite Summer song of 2014?

* I really enjoy the song, I'm on Top of the World, by Imagine Dragons.
