Lazy, Hazy, Sunny, Summer Days - (larger)

Absolutely beautiful! !!!!!    AJ

I think this would be one of my favorite ways to describe a perfect

Summer Day. Relaxing at the end of the day with a cool refreshment;

eyes closed as the sun slowly says goodbye........and my mind - just

a blur of all the beautiful memories I had collected. I'd take them all

and tuck them away in a safe place so that I could retrieve them on

one of those cold Winter days where my mind is having trouble

believing that yes, I will see glorious flowers again, feel the warmth of

the sun on my skin, and recall all the sounds and aromas of that

perfect summer day! (yes, I tend to be a dreamer and love recalling

the pleasant moments that touch our lives. I'll enjoy hearing what any

of you would like to share and perhaps some memories from one of

your perfect summer days. Cheers for now, Gail :)

AJ is right, just beautiful Gail. It has that summery atmosphere, well done.

BR, Holger

Beautiful work Gail !! You remember me that summer will not last forever and I should take the camera and go in the middle of flowers, grass and butterflies !! :) This is exactly what I'am going to do this weekend ....
