Little Lussie

A few days ago, 

I was wandering through Scotland

like a local.

Today, I'm sitting on a porch swing 

in the southern heat of Florida.

I'd take a picture to show you...

but my camera lens fogs over every time I try to take a picture.

While these beautiful little Floridian streets

of perfectly manicured lawns

lining pastel colored homes

filled with perfectly tanned people living inside

have a quite stunning effect...

I'm not sure how they compare

to the little village of Luss

that I stumbled upon over the weekend

while working our way up through Scotland.

(Though Scotland doesn't have my mom's biscuits & gravy... and that is hard to beat.)

I love the quaint "kirk" in the town.

("Kirk"= church in Scotland)

I also really love Cadbury 99's.

(Ridiculous soft serve on a cone with a Cadbury flake shoved in it. Yum.)

Seeing them just makes it feel like summer 

has actually arrived here in Britain...

even if "summer" often means

wearing a sweater, jeans & a giant scarf

while the grey skies above you spit out rain.
