"If wishes were horses, beggars would ride."
As the calendar pages fly by, my list of things to do grows ever longer. Now that the winter solistice approaches, I'm also wishing for warmer weather and longer days. Too bad I forgot to wish for these things (and more) when I was near a fountain. I would have wished that the European-esque park-like setting I was visiting was actually in Europe! Or I would have asked for a more graceful figure-- like the goddess below. What I really wish was that the water was safe to drink from the Fountain of Youth.
Since I was with a good friend, getting some fresh air, enjoying the day and getting a sunburn ... in November, I guess my wish was almost granted. Beggars can't be choosers.
