Outside the Window - Day 1

As I gaze out the window, I see cloudy skies bearing the threat of rain.  The temperature is acceptable but it's certainly not a day where I would be glad to be outside.  I would love to look out the window at the beach and see the waves crashing down on the sand.  The sun would beam down and warm me through the window.  If I was there, I would venture outdoors and soak in the sun as I laid on the sand close enough to the water that it could rush over my toes.  But I'm not there and I will choose to spend the day inside.
