Invitation To Freedom
There is a chill in the air as a cool breeze drifts in; causing one to don long sleeves and pants. A shift occurs as the lazy days of summer begin to fade. The park is quieter today as people move on to other responsibilities with September’s anticipated arrival.
Still the park’s allure prevails. Unaware of our man made world it bustles along stepping in time with nature’s pace. Seagull’s gleefully jostle about in the breeze causing one to imagine how joyful it must be to soar without cares in an endless expanse of space. Nature happily stretches out her arms in invitation to join her in a freedom that only she can provide.

I visited the park a few days before we were to experience yet another weather disturbance. The last one had brought with it much cooler air, bringing about the realization that summer was falling into the past. I love this view in the park. It is part of a well worn path that leads to the beach. As you trudge along there are little peek holes that allow views of the wide open ocean. The height of the path above the ocean adds to its appeal.
I always find that a shift occurs in September which makes me a bit melancholy knowing that summer will soon be over. On another note the anticipation of fall is stimulating as I love its brilliance. Wishing you a wonderful autumn or new season wherever you live!

Warm Thanks Michelle! Really appreciate your visit
Love your observation about a park getting quieter as people move on to their other responsibilities as summer ends. I take my lunch break from work at a nearby park as often as I can. I see the same transition. Your painting is lovely as always. I love the various colors you used on your beach. So fun to get sneak peaks like that along a path. Thanks for sharing!
