The Glorious...

I can't get over how good the weather is - here suddenly, and oh-so welcome. I hit up the Botanics today with Mhari and we brought our cameras along for the ride...trees laden with heavy blossoms of every shade, everything sprouting and growing and putting on it's best show. We finished up with iced drinks at Tinderbox. A pretty good Wednesday afternoon if you ask me....

When I got in a little later this evening {about 9.30} after being out for Tapas, I thought how different if felt to be full of the feeling of fresh air and warm breezes. That way when you get home at night in the summer, you want to just open the windows...pull your hair up off your face and neck, get into something light and comfy and just be for a while. I like the way the time seems to hang a little more in the summer, slows down around dusk....

I think I just really like my new place as well...it feels good to come home. 
Happy Wednesday all,
