Can't sleep

I woke at my usual time and lay there wide awake for an hour before I gave up and rolled out. My body does not acknowledge that we have fallen back two time zones. Five AM at home is 3AM here. And I am awake with that first day of summer vacation sense of omigodImightmisssomething!

DH, having wisely dosed with Nyquill is sleeping and breathing freely. Good on him! So I am sitting happily in the living area, catching up on your blogs and marinating in happiness. It's still dark. It's still December. And yet, I can sit on our tiny sliver of a lanai barefoot in my nighgown without incurring frostbite or hypothermia. It plays with my mind.

Last night, I took a photo from the lanai. Our condo DOES have an ocean view. You just have to lean out over the street a bit. I took the photo at arm's length - sunset over the Pacific.



Great ideas for photos, I'll Pack my knitting along today. We'll have breakfast at Duke's Canoe Club and I'll get more specific data on that lei-draped statue of the Father of modern surfing. More input later.
