Summer's Glory

Summer's glory arrives at days end. It is an admixture, a concoction or maybe a distillation of so many wonderful things.

You can start with sleeping in on a comfortable bed and soft sheets. Breakfast with coffee from a nearby shop and fried ham on Italian rolls adds to the growing joy.

A cloudless day with warm temperatures and a sea breeze adds more to the sense of delight. Reading leisurely a yellowed and brittle  little paperback novel just adds so much more. 

And then clams, flounder and fries. And conversation with good people about things that matter to us. There may be better days somewhere but I really want to savor this one.
