Here are the makings of a wonderful afternoon:
Bright, sunny sky
Cool sea breeze
Finishing a couple of great books
Blank pages in my journal
The sweet smell of Banana Boat Tanning Oil
Thinking back about fishing as a child
Watching two Anoles watch me
The symphony of mid-day crickets
Opening my eyes after being long shut and sun drenched - to see the tiny fireflies of light swim in my retinas
Staring at the clouds so long they start to undulate as if they were the crests of waves
Condensation from my water bottle dripping on my legs and chest as I rehydrate
Knowing I spent the day exactly how I wanted to
Having the luxury of quiet
Being able to pin-point how the grass smelled at 3:41 today
Enjoying the sun - for tomorrow, there will be rain
