Summer Growth

Just a reminder that I'm up at Frank's family cottage, away from computers for a week. I'll come around to visit shortly after I return.

I hope you enjoy the summer quotes and images below.

"Summer afternoon - summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language." ~Henry James


leafy
"I wonder what it would be like to live in a world where it was always June."
~ L. M. Montgomery




white bells
"Summer is the time when one sheds one's tensions with one's clothes, and the right kind of day is jeweled balm for the battered spirit. A few of those days and you can become drunk with the belief that all's right with the world."
~ Ada Louise Huxtable




gone to seed
"Ah, summer, what power you have to make us suffer and like it."
~ Russel Baker





peony after the rain
"The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain."
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow




wispy
"A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken."
~James Dent




buttercups hazy
"The dandelions and buttercups gild all the lawn: the drowsy bee stumbles among the clover tops, and summer sweetens all to me."
~ James Russell Lowell




peony after rain
"Like a welcome summer rain, humor may suddenly cleanse and cool the earth, the air and you."
~
Langston Hughes
