~the joys of summer

Rest is not idleness,

 and to lie sometimes on the grass

 on a summer day listening to the murmur of water,

 or watching the clouds float across the sky,

 is hardly a waste of time.

  ~ John Lubbock

update: the past month has been filled with

travel, visits, and rest - blogging has taken

a backseat - but I know you understand.

I am sure it will return on a regular schedule

once the "joy" of summer is enjoyed!
