From the 26th Floor, I Can See Summer...

...it's right outside my office window...hints of it...I can see it coming. I'm looking out over downtown rooftops, past the West End highrises, all the way west to English Bay. The sun is shining, the water is sparkling, a deep blue at the Bay, lightening to a pale cornflower blue as the Bay opens up into Georgia Strait. I can see the sand of Spanish Banks and my feet are wistfully wishing they could be padding down the warm sand as I skip rocks into the ocean. It won't be long now, though, until I'll spend some lazy Saturday afternoons leaning up against a driftwood log at the beach, reading a book...oh, come on Summer, come on...
