Sweet summer nights

In July it's so hard to come inside to sleep. As the evening fades so slowly into night, it feels like things are just starting to get good outside - cool breezes, new animal sounds, and fragrances that get lost in the heat of the day. I can forget about sunscreen, and quit worrying if I should drink more water. Without my hat, my visor or my sunglasses I can see the sky, the mountains and the fields as a panorama again.

So, we've put up this screened canopy where we can't see the neighbors and will go "camping" within easy reach of flush toilets and the espresso machine. What would Sarah Isabel Fawk think of that, do you think?
