Night Smell

I love night smell—not dry Utah night smell, but warm, damp, slightly windy night smell. I smelled it tonight as I was spending some thinking time outside, and it made me think of Manaus, and Texas, and Michigan, and all the places where night feels like a warm blanket.

ooo....i really enjoyed mozambican nights. i stayed so close to macuti beach, that hearing the absolute silence besides the ocean's waves...gorgeous. so peaceful.

Making me jealous, missy--that's the one thing I think that could make the spot where I'm living better, if it were closer to the ocean.

It was cool and humid and breezy today and it felt sooooo delicious. I love when the air smells all yummy and distinct. Totally gives me Michigan nostalgia too.
