Summer, A Time To Sit

This illustration comes from the Summer 2020 Issue of Woolgathering, my ad-free magazine about the seasons. I wrote about our patio life and the flow of indoor/outdoor living  – a practice that reaches its peak in Summer.

A few years ago, we were given two adirondack chairs that sit like thrones on our patio as the royals of Summer. I go there to read, to paint my toenails, to sip tea, to chat, to gaze at the treetops, to write, to watch birds, and to take in Summer. It is such a lovely place to be in nature – to be present with it – one of my favorite spots!

I have plans of painting these chairs in a whimsical way, and I’m looking forward to that project. I will share when completed! 

Do you have a favorite spot to take in Summer?
