There's something about the smell of watermelon that just means summer. I love to see the trucks with trailers full of ripe watermelons and homemade poster board signs parked on the side of the road selling fresh watermelon. Brings back memories of sitting on Nana's porch growing up eating what must have been our weight in watermelon, seed spitting contests with my brother and cousin over the side of the porch rail with the sound of the icecream maker churning in the background.
