Interesting

This afternoon, I met Elkie.  I was standing on the sidewalk watching the waves.  The woman next to me commented on the warm, humid weather.  I turned and smiled.  She took that as encouragement and began to talk.  She was dressed in blue and white Hawaiian capris and a matching blue shirt.  She was not homeless or in need of anything but conversation.  What a fascinating woman!  She was a retired archaeologist from Victoria, Canada in Hawaii for a symposium.  She is currently studying the weather patterns.  We discussed the storms back east and the drought in California.  She was charming.

Ending our talk with a chuckle about the people who do not believe our climates are changing, she said she was going to soak up some sun on the beach.

Life is so very interesting.
