Two views of sunset on the Selkirk Estuary, a walk in a wonderful place between two hillsides called Mystic Vale, and the old farmhouse across the street from where I live.
When I lived in Greece long ago and also stayed with relatives in Italy, it was the habit for everyone to don their best clothing and go for an early evening stroll along the waterfront or river, often stopping at a taverna or cafe for a glass of ouzo, vino, or espresso with friends. I still call it La Dolce Vita to this day and, though I live in a more rural area, have tried to keep the tradition, especially of domani or avrio. Why do today what you can put off till tomorrow?!!

thank you Tina!! I do try to stop and breathe and a walk is very calming too. We don’t have a taverna but we do have an English style pub nearby right on the edge of the woodland park so they must have planned that strategically!! 🙂

thank you Naomi. Although I love Scotland and Ireland of course, those Mediterranean countries have such a laid back style to them in spite of all the expressive gestures and passionate shouting! 😀
