Hasn’t summer been fabulous? This year has been a bit different for me, but change is good, I think. I’ve had one heck of a summer trip and stored fabulous memories that I hope will be brain-food for years to come. My son, his wife and the two grand-children are back in Ontario and it’s been a joy spending times with the grand-babies.
A friend and I spent a day exploring along the Rideau River. Thank you Shirley. I hope we do something similar next year on your vacation.
And I have finished revision one of the manuscript I’ve been working on. It now goes to beta-readers, and I have three lined up for this draft. I’ve also sent a synopsis and the first five pages to an agent and am waiting for the inevitable rejection slip. But that’s okay… it’s all part of it. It’s been rewarding getting this far.
Autumn approaches and I can feel it in the early morning hours when sleep eludes me for whatever reason. Fog lays in the gullies and there’s a hint of snap in the air. I love it… my favourite season, even though it’s a precursor of winter.
Welcome to my online home. Life is short and I think it's important to enjoy each day that we have. Here, I try to share little bits of things that I enjoy, things that make me happy and make me smile. I don't update this blog as often as I should.. but sometimes there are little bits of joy that I like to talk about. I have a follow widget on here.. follow along if you like. 
Sounds like you enjoyed the time spent with your friend Dot. Despite the nostalgia for me of this time of year (the easiness of the summer hols being left behind and moving towards being ruled by the clock again) I also love it. We’ve been seeing changes in nature for a while but it’s only recently we’ve had the chill in the early morning and late evening. Always love it when the seasons are on the change.
Glad you’ve had a good summer. Ours has been a bit up and down weather wise but only to be expected. This time of year is my favourite as we roll into Autumn. The colours of the leaves on the trees and how they change is so beautiful.
Like the photo Dorothy. Good luck with your submission.
Fingers crossed for that agent submission Dorothy! The rollercoaster ride begins… but you’re used to thrills Bikerhen!
It has been a fantastic summer for you! I followed your cross-country trek and I know a lot of the sights, sounds and smells that you experienced will undoubtably make it into your writing.
Good luck with your submission.
