Warm tropical weather from across the Pacific Ocean in Hawaii has slammed into Vancouver, and it feels just like Waikiki. And yes, those palm trees are here in Vancouver, right along Beach Avenue by English Bay. So I am going to be taking advantage of the beautiful weather to get outdoors, and I will be away from my computer for a couple of days.
I had sort of a pleasant experience this afternoon. I went downtown to pick up some things I needed, and the buses were stalled, so I grabbed a taxi home. The taxi driver had all the windows open in the car, and as we were driving across the Granville Bridge, it felt as if we were in a convertible. My hair was flying, and it felt wonderful. The taxi driver turned to me and said, "You are a very beautiful woman..." Omigosh! Every woman should hear that at least once in her lifetime, right? ...Just what I needed, just when I needed it.Get outdoors, everyone, and enjoy the summer evenings.

I know the feeling. I immensely enjoy it when the windows of the car or bus are open and my hair is 'flying', the breeze caressing it gently.
Blessings to the taxi driver! It's always nice to hear something like that from a sincere stranger.
What a boost to the old ego...er, I mean ... well, you know what I mean. LOL
Hope you have a lovely mini vacation. A compliment can make you glow for a year or more I think? And being told you are beautiful by a stranger with your hair flying in the breeze? Priceless!!
Bon Voyage, Jo!!! Have all the fun that you can and let the good times roll!
It's truly wonderful to be caught off guard with a fabulous comment like that! Obviously a gentlemen with fine taste! Enjoy your mini-vacation!! :)
