Sunshine is Delicious

"Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather."
-John Ruskin

This quote may be true, but with all the cold weather, I am absolutely craving to be in any of these images! I can't wait to feel the sun and sand on the beach :)

This quote is so true. We are still hot and humid here and I am quite looking forward to a bit cooler now.
Hope it warms up for you soon.

Oh friend I hope you will get to enjoy the warm weather soon! I also adore the feeling of just touching sand.... I would normally invite you to visit me in Rio, but it has been raining the past few days...

About Last Weekend said...

Nothing like a pair of bare legs against the sea to make you feel happy. Its rain rain here and our Swedish friends always used to say there's no such thing as bad weather just bad clothing. Still shorts are the best!

I love the quote- a positive in everything. The pictures are great too!

Annie said...

the sun really is delicious! I just got back from Florida last night and I am soooo missing it. 5 days of it just wasn't enough, but I feel really lucky to have gotten down there at all.. at least warm weather is right around the corner :) the flowering trees really started to bloom in the short time that we were gone, which is so exciting and really pretty!

Signe said...
