“And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer.”


F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
…………………………………………………………………………………………


. . . and somehow, amidst everything — days at the office and starlit weekends in the country, after the rains and the windswept petals, softly, beautifully, and at long last, it has arrived . . .

happy first day of summer! & hope it’s beautiful where you are,
