Changing of the Seasons...

I don’t know when it happened – really – but overnight summer has hit us. I was rudely reminded of it this morning when the sun coming through our bedroom window at 6am woke me up. I heard it yesterday in the sound of the summers first cuckoo bird singing on the wind. He must have just flown in from his summer home in Africa. I saw it yesterday when one of the cows across the street gave birth to twins. Temperatures are warm… flowers are in bloom… Summer is finally here.

Dee and I are frantically getting ready for our trip back to the states. We leave in nine days… and we still have a lot of office work to finish up, rooms to clean, friends to spend time with (one last time), and long walks to take.
