For the past two days, we’ve had unseasonably warm weather. Not exactly summer weather, but sunshine and warm temperatures that made it feel, for a bit, like it wasn’t November.
To complete the effect, Hyla and I heard this song on the car radio this afternoon, as we were driving through the valley, sunlight glinting off car windshield, people biking and walking in shorts, our windows open.
It’s one of those songs that takes me right back to that little house on Regina, where the summers were long and hot and carefree, the swimming pool water was always the right temperature, and the transistor radio was always tuned to CHUM.
