Dog Days of Summer

The past week has been a scorcher of a week. We have played at the beach some which has been great, but I have also found myself not that eager to get outside for a few days. Instead I have found myself 'playing with pictures'. I love living in a place with distinct seasons, and though I have long fought seasonality at different times, I find myself enjoying the pace of different months and seasons now. I look forward to fall, but am embracing even the days that are too warm to spend much time outside. It means more time to take care of the inside things. It means a quiet pace for a few days. I like that.
