Soak Up the Sun

There is something about a sunny day that can change your entire mood the second you walk into it's warm, welcoming heat and let it's lively light soak into your skin. As a California native I grew very accustomed to my perfect 70 degree days that would wake me up every morning and last until sunset, when the colors of the day melt over the ocean in a blur of beauty that I'd drown in as I stared. It's kind of romantic how the whole world just stops for that split moment when the sun comes down from it's perch and meets the palm of the earth, slipping away to visit the rest of the world for a while. There has never been a sunset that looks exactly like any other. It's like each one put's its own fingerprint on the city it enchants. Maybe it's the feeling of Friday that has me in this bubbly, creative mood. But I think it's this little glimpse of summer that has my spirits so lifted. You can always count on the tricks of Texas weather to bring you a sunny surprise just when you need it most.
