  1. I'm pining for summer and it's not even over yet! And that artwork above is very interesting and a bit creepy.

    1. It's been well-and-truly over this week in the UK!

      Cadmus can often be very creepy indeed... Jx

  2. I didn't even think about it being the equinox. I'm too busy to think.

    1. I wish. The grimmest time of year is fast approaching... At least we have Spain to look forward to in the New Year. Jx

    2. The name in the weather vane sums it up nicely 'Justamere Camp'.
      Oh and the 'floozie' on the left. You could polish diamonds on its' face.
      The best of social realism. I'm sure I've run across this crowd somewhere.
      Rgds. An admirer from afar.

    3. Cadmus was always an "amused observer" of society at its most extreme. And most camp! Jx

    1. I've never been to Fire Island, but I think you'd be sadly disappointed trying to find a scene like that in Brighton. Jx
