Nature

It was hard to be productive over the weekend, wasn't it?  Didn't you just want to spend all your time outdoors, relaxing, and enjoying the green trees and colorful flowers.  The sounds of birds chirping almost put me in a trance after I ate dinner outside yesterday...

At the start of the summer I promised myself I'd get outside and really enjoy the outdoors.  Specifically, I decided it would be nice to take a break each day and sit in the backyard with a cup of tea.  Here it is, the end of August, and I realize I've sat out maybe 5 times all season...
