A Perfect Afternoon


Today was finally sunshine... after days and days of drizzling rain.

(Is this normal? No. Since we moved up here last January, I've consistently heard "I've never seen weather quite like this!" The winter was unusual, the spring was unusual, and the summer is unusual. I'm trying not to take this personally; it seems since our arrival the weather has been 'different'. No one has looked at us suspiciously...yet; I'm sure it's all coincidental.)

The weather was glorious- golden sunshine, a breeze blowing through the trees, at high of 65 degrees. The perfect day to...... take a nap.

"What?!?" you say, "but the weather..... the fresh air, the wonderful opportunities to enjoy the outside!"

Aaah, yes..... but it was also the day for a Perfect Nap. That rare combination of cool breezes and refreshing slumber, with clear refreshing dreams. When you wake up and feel like a new person. At peace with the world and ready to take the world on. Yahoo!


Then.... we watched a classic movie: The Devil and Miss Jones. Lots of fun and worth every minute of being a bum.
On to a grilled steak dinner on the deck with the sunlight dappling on the table, and a bit of wine, and Tucker dashing after the latest toy.

A Perfect Afternoon.....
