Basking in the sun

We have had several lovely sunny days lately: mild, no wind. The ice is quickly melting away and being replaced with mud. Today I finally did what I have been longing to do: took out a garden chair and sat in the afternoon sun behind our cottage.

Above is Lucy posing in my sunning chair with the my tea cup (green chai with honey and milk) and the latest Vince Flynn, while below is the view from my chair.

I sat through 3 chapters and Lucy practiced lying quietly by my side, with occasional "cookies" to keep her motivated.
