Summer Moments, So Far

Putting our feet in the fountain at Spikersuppa in the center of Oslo, surrounded by small children doing the same.

Taking lunch outside with my coworkers at the picnic table, mid-work day.

Sitting on a blanket barefoot, singing hymns at our outdoor church service.

Eating ice cream popsicles with my dad and hubby on a sunny afternoon at the escarpment, joking around as we gaze over the best view in town.

Getting happy hour margaritas on the patio with a visiting friend, sunglasses optional.
Holly and me at the Hollow

Jumping in a cold lake after a long day of paddling, followed by chilling in the canoe while the hubby casts line after line into the pond that we have all to ourselves, hoping for a bite.

Playing impromptu volleyball at the church picnic, and being kind of good.

Ducklings and goslings, always in sets of four.

Discovering I have a watch tan!

Spending Monday morning at work trying not to itch the mosquito bites that cover my ankles and wrists.

Steamed mussels with drawn butter!!

Flowers: the unexpected rose bush in our side yard, the tiny ones underfoot on our hikes, the many public gardens full of them in every city from Norway to New York.

Days full of my favorite people - phone calls, skype dates, and visits.

and Cotton candy in Tivoli Gardens...
