Today was a picture perfect day. I put new blades on my riding lawn mower yesterday and it cuts like it did when I first bought it. I got out this morning and mowed the yard and garden.
Afterwards I sat on my wheelbarrow at the edge of the garden and soaked up the sun. The breeze out of the west felt cool on my skin. I felt like an old river turtle lying on a log.
My dogs were no better as they took up positions all around me and we laid there and blissed out for a long time.
Once I got up, I found a ripe tomato and plucked it from the vine. Still warm from the sun I took a bite and the juice dribbled down my chin. Not sure life could be much better.
