This morning I awoke with the brilliant light of the sun coming through the window. It was strange to see such bright light as it it has been quite some time since I last remember experiencing it like this. I think I will always associate this kind of intense sun and deeply rich blue skies with California…
Out of coffee at home, I walked across the street and picked up a coffee and sat outside briefly just to sit and take in the sun. The temperature was cool but refreshing and paired nicely with the warm light. Wanting to move a little bit before having to start work, I decided to take a small, slow walk around the block before returning home to start my work day.
Walking slowly, the gentle breeze was a stark contrast to the gusting winds of the weekend. The leaves and the grass were a a vivid green. It was very a very peaceful morning walk.
