The Perfect Day

8A9CD094-8D0C-40BC-BCC4-AFEDFFBCD9C5

Sleeping in until the sun shines through the blinds is very peaceful and it’s a new beginning to a Sunday morning after our Winnipeg Jets outscored the Nashville Predators the night before.

It’s our choice not to overplan our weekends because it’s a time where Darryl and I love to read and relax. Sometimes we visit Fools & Horses Cafe and relish our down time while we sip coffee and  on a favourite vanilla scone.

Today, the temperature climbed to 24 and sitting outside was so delightful. The smiles on people’s faces were brilliant and the summer wardrobe was out in full bloom.

We walked several kilometres and thoroughly appreciated the calmness. Kids in strollers, others cycling and many keeners running past us with their music loud enough that we could overhear their choice of music set the pace for the afternoon. The ice cream truck circling the neighbourhood is a sure sign that an early summer has found its way to Winnipeg.

However, the perfect day for us was simply loving the quiet moments of life.
