This Summer…

This summer was just the best. I was blessed with so many swims, good friends, great reads, fun road trips, fresh peaches, antihistamines, long days, cool nights, swift bike rides, plays, movies, even a baseball game (what?), gorgeous blooms in my garden, and corn for sale by the side of the highway. This summer was a work of art, and I’m a little bit proud of it, because I planned/booked everything back of January/February, when such a thing as summer was hard to believe in, and now it’s just in the rear-view, and oh, I loved it all. And now? Ready for the August-to-Cardigan transition…





Glad it was a good one, Kerry! We had frost on the roof of our house yesterday morning, but the best thing about the change to cooler days is not having to scurry out before the day heats up. I can be lazy and read for hours first.
FROST!! TOO SOON!
This is such a wonderful photograph. (Use it for your next book!)
