Summer is here!!!! The Pacific Northwest has a very short summer, and yet we know how to make the most of it. Art fairs, flea markets, outdoor movies, barbeque's by the lake, gorgeous views of the mountains in the distance, yachts dotting the coastline......I could go on and on.........what can I say.......it is a lovely time of the year!
My son is out of school .......and summer means also means that the noise level in my house increases by leaps and bounds:-) Its amazing how the sound of two brats squealing and running around the house can be both frustrating and delightful at the same time :-) My parents are here, the kids are home and it promises to be an exciting summer. I am trying really hard to focus on the endless list of chores and errands I need to tackle but its hard and I am easily distracted! I guess the summer needs to be enjoyed and I should shove the work aside and enjoy the days ahead.........
So lets dream a little together shall we..... and step away from reality. Do you dream of a summer home? Where would it be...... and what would it be like. I am very fickle and keep changing my mind about where this idyllic home might be. However, I am certain about a few things.....I need my family and friends around me, books, music, good food and of course my blog:-)
This summer house in Cantabria, up on the Northern coast of Spain looking out to the Cantabrian Sea seems almost perfect doesn't it??? I love the splash of color against the white walls. It has a happy and warm vibe to it. I would love to hear about your idea of a summer home........ and where it would be ??? So do drop me a line....I will be waiting!!
