August 1, 2015. Western Head, N.S. The Weather.

We pretend to be obvious to the weather.  Our conversation never involves complaining about the weather.  Our habit is to ignore it.   But of course we are like everyone else.  We  feel better when the sun is shining.   It is ridiculous but true.

Today was as pretty a day as you could find anywhere in the world.  The sky was blue with no clouds in sight.  In town, the temperature was almost 80 degrees.   The Ely's went to Carters Beach and it was beautiful.  At Western Head, it was 75 with always a cool breeze.  We stayed home and enjoyed the sea and the sun.  Doreen sat in the sun this morning but came in because she was too hot.  This was a first.   Being hot in Nova Scotia is unusual although when the temperature gets over 80 the local folks are uncomfortable but at the shore there is always a cool breeze.  In the 15 years we have lived here we have had only one evening when the dining room was too hot to serve dinner, so we took the appetizers down by the water where there was a breeze.   Then we came up to dinner when the evening cooled down.

Everyone loves a pretty day, including us, so we four spent a delightful day reading and eating and enjoying the weather.  Everyone was smiling.
