Summer Is Here

The main colours around me right now are - believe it or not - red and green. Last week, we celebrated Canada Day. We went on an outing to a resort. Our way was temporarily blocked by a little parade dedicated to the day. I liked all the characters that were present there. They were enthusiastic, outrageously cute, and possessed an infectious love for life.

Our weekend was spent in the company of kind and interesting people. What else could you wish for on a long weekend?

This is not our lunch. We were just happy for the fisherman.

Then, one person who can find a way to take a bath in the desert using one cup of water also figured out a way to use a rusty can to make a pipe for our barbecue.

Some were enjoying watching soccer games.

And others were playing a game themselves.

Somebody was running around - probably training for a marathon.

I captured this day with my camera, while my poet friend did so in this short poem she wrote in Russian:    Вершиной горной облака               Седеют на озерной глади              И яхт белесые флажки                   Шныряют в ветренном параде.     Уплыли поплавки плавцов             За горизонтные буйки                    И машут удочками нам                   Удачливые рыбаки.                          Ленив июльский первый день,      Заправив кашками кровать,          Березку уложил в постель             Про лето сказку рассказать. 

How is your summer so far?
