Starry Night

I really spend far too much time with my butt glued to the desk chair, but I’m taking the whole weekend off for Summerfolk, a major event around here. I missed most of last week’s Homecoming celebrations because of work commitments and I was really annoyed about it. The summer is flying by and I haven’t spent nearly enough time goofing off. Mind you, there will be plenty of recreational moments during my month’s vacation in the UK.
Bob and I took advantage of the star show a few days ago, staying up late to see the Perseid meteor shower from the excellent viewpoint of our patio. And now I am squinting at the keyboard by candlelight, sitting in the cool night air on the patio, looking up occasionally to another brilliant starry night.
