Tennessee Countryside

Sometimes all you need is a mid-week drive down a country road.

 

 

 

 

 

Summer Days

Summer heat and humidity have already taken over our days here in Middle Tennessee.
Oppressive humidity is hard to tolerate when Norseman blood runs through your veins.
Onwards and Upwards we plod along......

Summertime

In just a few short weeks the children return to school.

I remember when my daughter was young, summer break used to span from May until August, but no longer are the school systems on that schedule.

Now their summer holidays run for six weeks, and parents are busily gathering up school supplies and doing their uniform shopping,  franticly ticking off those lists.

Here we are in the midst of summertime, yet the rhythm of life moves along.

Returning

Summer has once again returned, and all is flourishing.

It's amazing what a day of sunshine can do for the tired spirit.

Hope you are having a lovely weekend.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Summer is the time when one sheds one's tensions with one's clothes, and the right kind of day is jeweled balm for the battered spirit.

A few of those days and you can become drunk with the belief that all's right with the world.

Summer Days

"Then followed that beautiful season... Summer.... Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood."

- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
