I heard rumors of sun and heat during the summer, but I just saw clouds and cool temperatures. On July 15 I wore my sandals, just because IT WAS JULY, but we were in front of the glaciers and it was freaking cold -- 28 degrees by the boat's thermometer.
But, like a fairytale land, I can believe in summer where the sun shines hot on the land and colors the dirt yellow and dips the shadows into violet.
Sam, I love this photograph! - it does make me nostalgic for endless summer days but then I'm reaching a stage where the mere thought of winter chills me, makes me glum somewhat.
I am Sam Hannaway, and I share this blog with the dogs in my life. Being creative soothes my soul, so I write when I have something to say, paint when words don't cut it and try to follow the dogs' advice with grace. They say to keep it simple.

Just to be back for a day or so would do me good!

Some miss it, some missed it and some wish they had. If I were empress, the days would be warm and the nights would be as cool as a glacier.

i love the temps but I sometimes think that autumn and winter are more compelling to paint. what do you think?

Summer, I get a lot of that. Fall, we have none. But I love the blue shadow on this road. So inviting.
Hey, Arty Fice! Good to know you're lurking out there. Though I didn't steal it, I agree that cool blue is quite appealing.
I think I do remember.
