Has finally arrived in all its hot, sunny glory in Pemberton. Combine the fact that when possible, I choose to be outdoors rather than indoors with a self-imposed screen/virtual/social media/internet break on weekends, I’ve not got much time or inclination to write.
Simply summarized, life looks like this these days:
Coffee on the deck early in the mornings rather than bundled in a dark kitchen. Commuting to work by bike a few times a week in only a jersey and shorts. Fans in almost every room of the house. Pool or lake time instead of baths and showers. Lots and lots of time on bikes. Sunscreen. Hot, hot, hot trail runs (my favourite – except for when the sunscreen stings my eyes). Water bottles scattered everywhere. Entry way full of flip flops. Falling asleep when it’s still light out (I consider this a luxury while some consider it a weakness). Kids in swimsuits 24/7. Ice cream treats. Fresh local fruits. Gardens, sprinkler and trampolines.
Happy Summer, friends. Up next? Defeat the Duffey – a local event not to be missed!
