On this longest day of the year, six women gathered on our good friend Cindy's dock to watch the sun rise. We had all awakened before 4 a.m., so our eyes were a little bleary, and each of us clutched a travel mug of coffee or tea. We wore vivid colors in honor of the day. One of us wore bright pink lipstick. The crabbers who passed by looked up from working their trotline and waved, but I'm not sure they knew what to make of our sungazing, in silence punctuated by muffled laughter....
What a perfect way to celebrate the summer light and the joys of friendship. Love you, ladies! I'd put in a 19-hour day with you anytime.
fantastic picture :-)
