Summer At My Cabin In Show Low, Arizona

During summer vacations, my family spends as much time as we can at our cabin in Show Low, Arizona. The smell of pine trees, a chilling breeze, and the crackling of fireplaces gives such a comforting feeling and allows me to escape from the real world for a while. It is relieving to get away from the blazing heat down in Phoenix. We have many lifelong friends who also share the pleasure of owning a cabin in Show Low. Summer is, by far, the best part of every year.
Our cabin lies right on the 13th tee box of a golf course. Every morning, we wake up to the “tink” of a club hitting the ball off the tee. Swimming at the community pool, playing games at the family center, and enjoying the outdoors of the forest is how we spend our days. Once in awhile, my siblings and I get a big group of friends together and go hiking around the lake to go cliff jumping into the water. The sunset over the reservoir is miraculous. The orange and pink in the sky gives the water a beautiful shimmer. It makes it look like someone poured dye in
We run all around and chase each other until we could barely walk anymore. After “50 Fast”, we go home and have a second serving of Tacos in a Bag because the aroma lingers in the cabin and it is unavoidable. Whenever my mom makes Tacos in a Bag, I get a deja vu feeling to the summers we have at our cabin. It seems like the scent of ground beef and fresh vegetables carry so much more than flavor. When I smell this in our kitchen, I can feel the cool breeze of chilly Show Low nights. I can smell the aroma of pine trees in the forest. I can hear the crackling of our fireplace as we all sit around and eat our dinner. I can hear all of my friends laughing and screaming and having a good time. Nothing can ever beat that feeling of comfort I get from Tacos in a
