hazy, crazy days of summer

A perfect day in August:

lazy morning clouds at sunrise burning off into a hazy blue sky the rest of the day.

We treasure these hazy mornings and clear days up north knowing fall is in the air, showing itself in the cool morning air.

More cool skies can be visited at Skywatch Friday. 

Farewell, Klaus!

Hesitate in August.
Be shy.
Let your toes tremble in their sandals.

Ann Sexton

Here's to a new day in a new month full of golden possibilities. Enjoy--and do let your toes tremble!

For Skywatch Friday I give you an illustration of our summer--and maybe yours too:  humidity (note the hazy trees), white skies and a hot wind. I took this in July at White Bear Lake.

Happy August!
