This is looking out into the Atlantic Ocean. Looks really nice and calm this morning. Keep in mind the ocean stays warmer into the fall because the Gulf Stream brings the warm water north all the way to Scotland.

Yep, been there, done that.
Joining the conversation in progress: until the realization the song mentioned was Lazy Hazy Crazy Days of Summer, believed the discussion was focused on the tune “Old Cape Cod”.
