Maine Morning

I love sitting outside on the deck in the morning nursing my diet coke and reading the papers before every one gets up and the day really starts. The lake is quiet and still, no boats out yet pulling skiers or tubes full of laughing kids. I've got lots to do today in preparation for tonight's big dinner but right now it feels so a good just to be here alone overlooking the water, loving the breeze and, most of all, the silence.
