Just a little Daydream

I am sitting here at work, looking out of the window onto the most lovely sight - a snow blizzard that has hit Montreal. It is gorgeous, and it never ceases to amaze me, how the city can be covered by a blanket of white in the matter of a few minutes. The snowflakes are large and full, and fall slowly to the ground -

But it is not this that I am thinking about.

I am daydreaming about being in a cabin on a beach. No where specific, any beach, any cabin will do.

I am sitting on the verandah of the cabin with some good friends. It is that time of night when the sun is setting, and the heat of the day is silenced by a refreshing summer breeze....

I am sitting listening to the waves crash against the shore
I am watching the passers by, listening to them chitter chatter and walk their dog
I am feeling the sun on my face, and smelling the BBQ being cooked for dinner
I am sipping a cold glass of wine, and contemplating life with those in my company
I am wearing my cossies, my sarong, and my thongs (the Aussie version thank you very much)

I am just about to run into the water...

I am happy.

I think that seeing the summer pictures of Mums Party on the weekend has made me really think about all the joys of summer. And to be honest, as much as I love these snow blizzards, I would swap it for a warm climate anyday :-)
