Yet so wonderful.
Today was the annual touch-up-the-patio-furniture-with-spray-paint-day.
It was gorgeous....blue blue sky....soft warm breeze....all the leaves out and fresh and creating a dappled sun screen overhead.
I was so happy.....just to walk around....turn the chairs over....spritz a bit o' paint here and there.
I didn't rush ...we have two decks because our home is on a hillside...so I stretched the touch up job for the first deck through the morning.......tomorrow another beautiful day is forecast....and I will relish the small but satisfying task of planting flowers and getting the furniture arranged.
Granted as summer moves closer we don't do much sitting outside....the bugs and humidity....will see to that...but still the scene is nice to look at from the house....the clay pots with white flowers spilling over....the soft murmur of the fountain....the chairs ready should you be brave enough to sit a spell despite ravenous insects and the heavy wet blanket we call air down here.
