Fishing with Grandpa.

Eating shave ice with the BFFs. Watching your little one splash in the ocean for the first time. This is what summer's all about.

With the season quickly coming to an end, we'd like you to share with us your absolute favorite moment from the fine, fine summer of '09. Maybe it was marrying the love of your life or simply running through sprinklers with the kiddies.

Tell us in 50 words or less — what did you do and why was it so special? We also welcome photos (original prints or high-resolution digital images), which may appear in print or online. We'll publish our favorite stories and photos in an upcoming issue.

Send your name, age, phone number and address, along with your story and/or photo to: Summer Moments, Island Life, The Honolulu Advertiser, P.O. Box 3110, Honolulu, HI 96802; or e-mail it to zserrano@honoluluadvertiser.com with "Summer Moments" in the subject line.

Submissions may be edited. Original photo prints cannot be returned. The deadline is Aug. 28.
