August 2013 Photo A Day Project - Week Two

Ahhhh... Perhaps this is perfection.... Blissful Outdoor Weather. And next week is forecast for more of the same. Except for the missing scent of tropical flowers and the sound and salt tang of the sea, we could be in Hawaii or California, but with all of the comforts of home! Ottawa summer days are often too hot-and-muggy for outdoor sittin' or activities, so we are soaking in these glorious just right days.

I'm feeling especially spoiled this month, as my one of my closest girlfriends has the entire month off from her job. We're both focusing on getting healthier, so we get together every day or two to walk and gab, either along the river or through the greenbelt woods. What a treat!

There are loads of things happening and upcoming, so, to give you a glimpse of a few of them, here are the daily photos from last week.

4 - Fresh

We eat like Royalty.

Fabulous trails through the woods just a
one-minute walk / 30-second bike ride from home.

1. Being outside. 2. Putzing on the computer.
3. Hanging out with Pierre. 4. Eating on the patio.
5. Having delicious breakfast made for me.
6. Listening to the blues from P's itunes. 7. Bacon.
Not necessarily in any order!
