Summertime  oh  summertime  pattern of life indelible  the fade-proof lake  the woods unshatterable  the pasture with the sweetfern and the juniper forever and ever . . . the cottages with their innocent and tranquil design  their tiny docks with the flagpole and the American flag floating against the white clouds in the blue sky  the little paths over the roots of the trees leading from camp to camp. This was the American family at play  escaping the city heat.
