A Perfect Howth Day

This morning I woke to the sound of a text message bursting through my phone. I had slept late. I wiped and focused my eyes, read the text, and checked the time. I promptly jumped up and opened the curtains, transforming the darkened cave in which I slept into a sun flooded room. Bright, beautiful and crisp was the day which awaited me and I was happy to greet it. Today would be the start of new and exciting possibilities and the bright blue skies, filled with fluffy white clouds, seemed to concur. The Dogs of Howth were wandering about on the Pier in their normal fashion; making their rounds, meeting their friends, stopping to sniff and investigate trees, corners and the bottoms of other dogs! One might say, it was just a perfect Howth Day! 10/12/2012(C)
