something said for savoring summer.

after returning home from visiting my dad in tennessee, i was greeted (more like surprised) by crisp weather and wondering where my long sleeve shirts are packed. hmmm, a bit early for my taste (i am a summer person at heart), but i'll take it. i'll run with it and begin licking my chops for fall decorating, autumn color palettes enjoying outdoor fires in our little home~made fire place and cozying up with my favorite layered bedding. before i get ahead of myself, i must savor (just a while longer) all that is (was) summer.

have you ever plunked yourself on just one of your favorite blogs for a while and perused all of their favorite blogs? and not moved? i did that today on oh joy's wonderful blog. i went through their favorite blogs and sites to visit...these are the results. new finds, old loves, and tons of summer savoring going on to sink a ship. speaking of ships, i may ride my (getting very old now) bike down to the beach to catch up on reading for class. why not right? must suck up summer while i can ;) enjoy!
