Coffee and scones on the beach. 
Perfect way to start the day. 
Every day more family joins our band. Soon, as many as possible will be together – then Christmas – then our traditional road trip.
I am on “day three “- the tiredest day.
I hope you have a lovely day.
Love celi

Everything looks so wonderful and I know you’re having a lovely time with family. Perhaps the unaccustomed warmth is contributing to the tiredness?
If there is a wee bit of rhubarb not earmarked for Aunty’s recipe, you might like to try rhubarb punch? Equal parts chopped rhubarb and water, cook on low till rhubarb is mushy. You can add sugar or sweetener (just enough to take the hard bite out) and then blend (or use stick blender). Some people strain the fibre out, but I don’t bother. Chill well, pour some in a glass, add equal amount clear soda (gingerale, fresca, whatever you have there), with or without ice cubes. Adults will likely enjoy it with a bit of vodka – white rum – or the best additive GIN. Mmmmm, might have to dig some rhubarb out of the freezer for Christmas Day, although winter in Southern Ontario is a bit chilly for summer drinks.
Enjoy every minute!

you make me wish I had frozen some rhubarb this summer!
Rhubarb punch sounds wonderful
Celi how I wish I had crawled into your pocket. We have coooold coming in Christmas day, Tuesday’s high here in east central Wi. predicted to be -1F. I thought hearing this would make you doubly enjoy the sun and heat over there. Merry Merry.
Oh, you’re here! It’s scorching at the bach too, but at least I can get a breeze coming through. You’ve chosen a bright, hot summer to be here. Hope you can get lots of swims.
A very Merry Christmas to you, all your family and the farmy.
