It’s the weather, music, my mood and the recent arrival of Sunset Magazine that always puts makes me envious, wishing I had a “Sunset” lifestyle.
Sigh…it’s so beautiful today and although I have been working at my profession, I’m not in the mood to do it because the skies are blue, the breeze is gentle and the sun is soft. I’d like to do nothing but spend my time in the garden, read the magazine and dream….
At this time California poppies are beginning to bloom and their bright, brilliant color in the garden, are like sententials for spring. And then there are the blue, dainty flowers floating upon long stems of Blue-Eyed Grass /Sisyrinchium bellum that make such an eye catching contrast against the poppies.
I have been listening to Hawaiian music on the Mountain Apple Company’s “radio” for most of the morning and dreaming of a Hawaii and the peace and beauty of the islands & the time when I kayaked from the beach at Kailua over a coral reef to a small island.
Then there’s the Palapa….Sigh, I could be on a Mexican beach, staring out over the ocean, drowsy and dreamy.
But I’m here and not in Mexico or Hawaii but I do have my native garden that is a good substitute for a vacation, sans the palapa but at least I do have Sunset magazine.
