Despite the steep cliffs and the razor blade rocks, it's very peaceful up at the Poseidon temple over Cape Sounion. My favorite uncle sails, so I always say a special prayer when I'm here, just in case the old gods are listening.
Pic: I love this sunset, and Nu, and the fact that they have a soft spot for Pitbull (check the tee) because I once told them that my girlfriends took me to a Pitbull concert for my bachelorette party (and then to Scores, IYKYK). #GreeceI don't remember anything about the concert except that Pitbull was very sweaty and had to keep wringing out the towel he was using to mop up. We were right up front too. There are very few people whose sweat wouldn't bother me, and Pitbull was never on that list, so I was a bit worried it would get on me.
(One month since Mom's 80th birthday. No matter how much I distract myself, that internal calendar keeps track.)

That photo is just wonderful! Sigh.
"...in case the old gods are listening." This passage about your uncle who sails reminded me so much of Elizabeth Strout's book The Things We Never Say.
Sunset in Greece! Sigh.
Beautiful photo and fun story.
That internal calendar is always there.
Thanks, Jeanie!
