Hello Susan:
Yes, as you say, summer is floating by but, we wonder, could it do so in any more relaxed, peaceful or picturesque manner than what you show here? We think most likely not.

Rivers are wonderful additions to any landscape and really do give a sense of calm and well being. You are so fortunate to have this one so close to where you live.

Here, in temperatures of over 35C, we have been paddling in the Danube - albeit on the very edge!!

Do you kayak on the river yourself?
I love kayaking - I used to kayak quite a lot when younger. The place looks like perfect for that. Lucky you!

Oh, what a way to go!!! Yes, summer is floating by and my thoughts are turning south to Florida where the living is as easy as your river is right now...we sit on deck at Snook Haven to watch fishermen and kayakers mosey on down the alligator-infested waters of the Myakka River...no swimming going on there!

You have inspired me to get out and have some fun with my art - thank you - at the moment I am experimenting with reborn shabby chic furniture! Have posted some on my blog.

Thanks again - Jenny @ French A La Beach
