Summertime....

It's no secret I prefer warm weather and longer days. Waking up after the sun is up, working out in the yard or walking the dog after dinner are the pleasures only summer time can afford. I feel so darn healthy! I work in the yard and have a good sweat. I drink lots of water. Vegetables and fruits are in season, fresh, and affordable. Color. Sunlight is abundant - I can do what I need to do and even have time for laziness, with light to spare.

When I lived in Rochester, NY (briefly) I learned how important this is to me. I was seriously depressed in the fall-and the winter-and the spring. Going to Florida for a vacation in February on year literally blew. my. mind.  That was the beginning of the end of living in Rochester. There are places - in my own country -  where you can wear shorts....in February. Who knew?

But now, we are past the solstice and the days insidiously get shorter. We're having too much fun to notice right now, but it's happening. Kind of like life, now that I think about it.
