Being a water girl at heart, last March I wanted to have my birthday
party on the beach at the Columbia River.
The day was rainy, so the party was taken inside.
Yet the desire to sip tea by the river still sat in my heart.
So yesterday two of my friends joined me for an early morning
(well 9AM is early for me) time sitting near the river sipping our morning tea
and nibbling on a freshly baked blueberry muffin.
It brought JOY to my heart to sit here with two special friends
and catch up on the news while watching the sun come from behind the clouds.
It was a salute to the end of summer and a welcome nod to Autumn,
which is just around the corner.
Yes, the signs of Autumn are starting to wave and say "see me".
After sipping our tea, it was time for one more stroll on the beach.
Farewell, dear Summer!
I enjoyed your warmth on my face, but sometimes you were just too hot.
Welcome, Autumn!
Your colors delight my heart.
Enjoy the transition with a special weekend, dear friends!
See you on Monday with a new tea quote.
