CROSSWORD #1683: It's Summer

IT's SUMMER: [ ACROSS LITE][ PDF] 
PROGRAMS: [Across Lite] [Adobe Reader]

When the Biz Quig made this puzzle, the weather couldn't have been nicer. Around 80 degrees, but it felt warmer. Just one of those hazy warm "it-feels-good-to-be-alive" days. Now, as I'm hitting publish, there are sheets upon sheets of rain coming down. At least here in Boston. God laughs, I guess. So, here's hoping you are having a much better weather day that I am. Dig in.

Reminder: Marching Bands year TEN began last month! You should sign up today if you haven't already! Click the above link for a sample puzzle and how to sign up.

There's also The Hub Crossword (Sunday puzzles by me and Joon Pahk) if you still need more content.

Share the puzzle. New one on Monday.
