missing …

004vs

I know I shouldn’t rush the days away, but I miss this time of year.  I miss walking around with my camera capturing beautiful things.   I miss the water, the views, and the warmth.

And I miss how the last remaining farm in the area plants beautiful flowers in front of their crops and sells them in bunches at their farm stand.   Oh, how I miss that farm stand in the winter.

And I definitely miss fresh seafood eaten by the water.  Everything tastes better by the water, doesn’t it?   I’m an island girl after all.  Long Island, that is.

And I miss how if you drive just a little bit north, you get beautiful sunsets over the Long Island Sound. 

I hate to whine, really.  I know I’m lucky to live where I do.  But on rainy, chilly days like today, I miss summer days.   So I am really enjoying all the posts from those of you who live in warmer places, even if I am a bit jealous.  Keep ‘em coming ladies!  You’ve got to get me through the rest of this winter!

Best,
Stephanie

    I never thought I'd say this, but I do not miss the summer At All!! Probably because we get 70+ degree weather here in January, and to be honest it's just a painful reminder of how brutally hot the summer can be here! I'm not complaining either, but honestly i would love to see some snow right about now, I guess we all want what we don't/can't have!

    Oh, those photos are killing me, Stephanie!
    Gorgeous.
    I suppose you're right and we shouldn't wish time away, but I won't complain one little bit when summer gets here!

    I don't blame you for missing your summer! You wouldn't miss summer if you lived in Arizona where it's stinking hot! But, the flip side of that is the awesome climate this time of year. You should put yourself on a plane and come hang out with me! xo

    Oh these images are beautiful! How I would love to stop at a farm stand and pick up a bunch of zinnias. LI does have the best farm stands. It's funny...I'm here in sunny southern California where the temps are well into the 70's and wishing for a cold snowy day. I do miss those lobster rolls...I used to make them when I lived in CT and could get fresh lobster at Stew Leonard's. Do you have a Stew's?
