Summer Breeze (Makes Me Feel Fine)

-

It is pouring rain this evening and the leaves are starting to change. Cambridge smells like earthworms. Seems like a good time to open a bottle of Primitivo, make some meatballs, and look back at August...

Overexposed lighthouse in Boston Harbor

(Cue slideshow music by Seals and Crofts)

See the curtains hanging in the window
In the evening on a Friday night
A little light a-shining through the window
Lets me know every thing's all right...

LSB and I paid a visit to Heather, Jamey, Libby,
two dogs, a cat, many chickens, and thousands of hippies.

Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

Berries at the ByWard Market in Ottawa

LSB likes Canada

A big pile of Canadian corn

Adam is serious about cucumbers

See the paper laying on the sidewalk
A little music from the house next door
So I walk on up to the door step
Through the screen and across the floor

Sailboats on the Charles (sigh)

Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

A picnic on the Esplanade with LSB,
a wedge of bree, and a thermos full of rosé

Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom
July is dressed up and playing her tune
When I come home from a hard day's work
And you're waiting there, not a care in the world

A view of Boston from the Harbor Islands

See the smile a waiting in the kitchen
Food cooking and the plates for two
Feel the arms that reach out to hold me
In the evening when the day is through

The dark 'n' stormy's were tasty here, too.

Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

(Soundtrack inspired by an ironic/eclectic compilation CD created by Hugh for my birthday)
