Fall

Fall is my favourite season of the year and this has been the nicest autumn in recent memory. It has been lovely to spend days up at the house working and walking about. Some days are so beautiful it has been hard to resist the temptation to step off the porch and explore or to lay in the hammock and bird-watch with my sweetie.


To ward off any guilt about slacking off, I like to remind myself of the following:

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.
~ Sir John Lubbock
