Happy Summer

Summer is here; steamy, sizzling, humid, panting [that's the dog] hot. Time to take to the sofa for an afternoon nap, definitely time to water newly transplanted plants. It's this kind of weather when  I realize I could never live in a tropical climate. It's almost enough to make me long for fall, but not quite. My brain turns to mush and I slow down to almost a full stop. I'm in a trance [yesterday I blamed the scent of peonies], I can't focus. The photo is a reflection from the TV of J's feet [the camera was on automatic so I know it wasn't my eyes out of focus]. A great way to spend a hot summer afternoon; feet up, a good book, and a swim later. Happy summer everyone.

  2. Oh! I know that feeling...and that view, expect that it's me on the couch and my own toes in the way of the tv. Far too hot for CT at the moment. Feels more like our days in the DC area. When the girls get home from school, we'll hook up the sprinkler again and all run through it. Stay cool!

    1. Thanks Eve, love taking photos of reflections and this photo was so hot, lazy summer afternoon. A friend calls them halcyon days, perfect description.
