ON THE BACK BURNER

Today was just about a perfect day. Sunshine all day and yard sales.I saw some of the most beautiful scenery. Winding , tree draped roads that led to ocean views. I wondered if the people who live in these beautiful areas appreciate what I am seeing. I have lived mostly in urban environments. City streets,buses,people walking on sidewalks. Here is unadulterated serenity. A couple of summers ago, when I was first here for a visit, I asked how anyone could work here. It is just too beautiful. The answer that I got was that it was hard . After going to 4 yard sales, and seeing the same people at each of them, we bought Vietnamese sandwiches and ate them watching sail  boats tack into the wind. How much better can it get.  I am so lucky... and I know it.
