Project 365: Day 49 - Sun. July 5th, 2009







I wish I could bottle up days like today to break open around February. I don't know what I love more about summer - the color of flowers, the shades of green, the warmth of the sun, the length of the day... I just feel more awake, more alive in the summertime...I can hear Will Smith singing it now.... I always say that fall is my favorite season - I wonder why on days like today... Maybe this is why people move to warm climates - so they can feel this all year long. Humph - note to self - consider moving.

While sitting in my backyard reading (my favorite summer activity) a bird came within 3 feet of my chair looking for something to eat. I watched it flit from my picnic table to my flower garden, to my grass, to my red maple and I was grateful for the time to be still and observe the world around me.

  1. Your flowers are wonderful Dona!!! They are really nice. It's definately the time to relax and enjoy life because during all the other seasons you are either in school or trying to prepare for the coldness. But,I do miss learning the new SAT words...I think that's one of the main things
    I miss about school, our AVID SAT words.
