My Maggie July


Summer slipped us underneath her tongue
Our days and nights are perfumed with obsession


How was your 4th of July? Like the smoke hovering low in our valley this morning, I'm still feeling a lingering spirit of what felt like a 4-day holiday. Saturday, July 1st, saw hiking a mountain to watch Provo's Freedom Festival fireworks with friends. Sunday was a twilight rooftop party with views of fireworks all around town. Monday night we kicked off the 4th with a midnight bbq, to ensure we celebrated the first bbq of the 4th of July. And, finally, on the 4th, watching Provo's parade on a friend's balcony facing Provo's historic Center Street. Whew! Provo celebrates Independence Day right.

I'm grateful for friends and family who live in the moment and make my life here pretty magical.

Listen to this to set a dreamy mood for the rest of July.
