Winter is renewal
Spring is re-birth
and Summer is simplicity
Every year when summer rolls around I long for the breeze and sound of the ocean. Summer to me is a time of awakening and discovery. A time to remember when life was slow and simple as the long, hot days. Growing up near a beach I have many fond memories of summer; many summer visitors would make the long journey through autumn, winter and spring to our little beach town to open their summer cottages. Old friendships from the summers before were renewed. Lazy days sitting in rocking chairs on wrap around porches sipping lemonade, feasting on fresh garden fare and listening to stories of old from our elders accompanied with bike rides along the beach. Uncomplicated summers before cell phones and internet; when life was simple but life was good.

You make me need a beach house. Not want but need.
