Tell us about your summertime fling

Remember the summer fling with that adorable person you met on the beach years ago?

Most of us, if we’re lucky, have a summer romance in our pasts. They often burn brilliantly and fizzle fast at summer’s end. A few shine on forever. We’re looking for vivid, funny or poignant tales of summer flings from summers gone by.

We’ll publish a selection of the best ones in the IN Life section. . If you have a story to share, we’d like to hear from you. And if yours is selected for print, we’ll give you a gift certificate for ice cream cones for two

Please include your name, phone number and the city where you live. If you have a snapshot of the couple, please send it to us by e-mail or regular mail. If you mail a photo, please write your name, address and phone number on the back.

Send the story and photos to Jamie Tobias Neely, Features Department, The Spokesman-Review, P.O. Box 2160, Spokane, WA 99210 or by e-mail to jamien@spokesman.com. We need your entries in hand by Wednesday.
