...so delightful, rain or sun! I hear folks all the time whining about the weather this summer. I get it, you can't sit at the beach; how boring is that anyway!? I'm not saying you need to get out and do something every day, there is no reason to act as if doing so would be terrible though. Over the last seven days I canoed a little over eighty miles. Did it rain? You better believe it. Was it freezing cold at times? Only when I was too much of a fool to dress properly. It was also an absolutely amazing time and I wouldn't trade a moment of it for anything. Days of rain in a canoe makes for a much stronger appreciation of the sun when it does shine through.
Summer weather is here finally yet I really want to stress how much that really doesn't matter. It's possible to hike in the rain. Canoeing in the rain is beautiful. Barbecue in the rain (that's why they have covers I believe), play in the puddles. Just enjoy the weather for what it is.
Enjoy the summer for what it is; warmer weather (even if it is wet this year), longer days, smiling faces (if folks would just accept life for what it is and try to make the best of it!). Summer is here and I'm enjoying it an awful lot.
