We haven't had a summer at all so far this year. We had the wettest June on record, and July isn't looking any better. Maximum temps at the moment of about 17-18C - low 60sF. This time last year we were in the mid 30s (high 90s, F)!

We have a joke about northern towns in Québec.

One guy from a southern region lands in a little town somewhere up north.
In a little cafe he meets with locals to find something to do. At one point he asks...
"What do you guys do during summer?"
Someone answers...
"That day we go fishing."

Seriously, it may be a gloomy day, but that photo - enlarged full screen - shows a landscape lovely and beautiful.

The place where Alex lives is, IMHO, one of the most beautiful places in Europe. I've visited there (completely unconnected with MR!) many times and it's just stunningly beautiful.

Kidding you Alex!

I like to be out in bad weather. There is nothing as impressive and humbling than a full blown snowstorm. In days like today I miss them. Your place must be beautiful in winter!

I with you Yvan, but I prefer a full all-out thunderstorm! In Baton Rouge, LA on a cool enough day, I used to open my sliding glass door and sit on the porch or inside and watch the show and smell the scent!

I do that with the shop doors opened too. But the great metal mass of the machines scares me a little when there's lightning.

Yvan, winter is a totally different story, and you're right, it's gorgeous here during winter. Alas, in summer we have quite a lot of rain due to being right by the lake and surrounded by mountains, and this can really affect your mood (in a baaaad way ).

This is how it usually looks in winter (not my photos):
