When i look outside, i see rain, some blue sky and wind bending treetops, which are heavy with apples, nuts, pears, and tiny plums. The fall is soon here. I felt it my toes, as we walked home yesterday from a dinner in my summer-shoes. Even some yellow leaves were lying around. My phone has started to ring - people are back from holidays, still going to the countryside, because the real work will soon begin, but their back in their minds from beaches and seawater and green outdoor activities, thinking about, what they'll do next year. August is the month of visiting people it seems, with watermelons, the reminder of the hot sun, and stories about how this summer has been, where everyone has been and they have done. It's a rich month. Of friends and food and life.
The last day we didn't take the camera with us to the beach or anywhere in Hiiumaa and that was when we encountered the most calm sea, a surface like a mirror, water so clear, that we could see our feet. The sky was dark blue, building up rainclouds, and it was so warm to swim, as if being hugged by the water. Maybe it's best that there is no picture to document a fragment of it, since it could never give it all (at least my camerahandling ability doesn't). And memories start resembling more to the photographs than the memories?
One bag less to carry and eyes wide open. It was a beautiful time. Thanks for having us!
