I think Sunday mornings in the summer are my favorites of the year. When the sun is shining, though not quite hot yet. The Cicadas are making their sounds that take me back to my childhood, waiting for them to shed their skin so we could claim their trophies left behind. The Doves are cooing on top of the house and all is right with the world for a few minutes.
I just watered my flowers and picked the ripe tomatoes, wishing my sister, Patti was here to help me make something edible with them. She is the BEST chef and would be a wonderful contestant in a cooking show, now if I can convince her of that!
Yesterday we went to the East end of Long Island. It is so beautiful out there with all the vineyards and sunflowers. We watched our son, Andrew, play Lacrosse for the first time in 4 years. I had forgotten how much I loved to watch him play. I miss those days of hurrying home from work to make it to a game. Their youth goes by so quickly.
I took pictures of a red Dragonfly, have you ever seen one? It stayed for pictures and landed on Art's hand. I researched it and it is called a Red-veined Darter. It was beautiful. I always wonder if it is someone I know in another form......
Well on to the rest of the day and chores.
Best to all,
Mimi
