There is nothing like 25 degrees and a cloudless sky to make you forget the nearly 2 months of awful or semi-awful weather that was threatening to turn into the Summer That Never Was here in Vancouver. This morning, Tannah had a grooming appointment, and since I had to drop her off by 9:00 am, I took advantage of the opportunity to grab a coffee and a scone and read the paper at the coffee shop next door to the groomer's in Kits. ( How cosmopolitan of me.) It is such a rare luxury that I can do that, but I really appreciate the opportunity when it arises - today I was one of "those" people - you know, the ones you see as you scramble on your way to work, leisurely sipping a latte at 7:30, maybe reading the paper or surfing the net, seemingly without a care in the world. I always wonder - do these people not have jobs? Why do they have so much time on their hands? Why are they so stress-free? And, more to the point, Why am I not one of them??
This afternoon, Tannah and I took a road-trip out to Steveston in the sunshine to meet up with a friend and her parents who are visiting from Scotland. There is nothing quite like strolling along the wharf in Steveston on a hot summer day. It is such a quaint little village and so picturesque in the sunshine. The best part is - according to the weather reports, we are in for a full week of warm, sunny weather.
