Stretches

An elm stretches toward the sun, the clouds, and the blue, blue sky.

I will return Thursday evening. Until then, blessings.

Welcome break

I stopped to appreciate a welcome break from January’s largely overcast sky.

Lines

Lines plowed into a field lead to a farm house, outbuildings, and bush.

Grateful

I was most grateful for this look at blue sky and cirrus clouds during our extended spell of cloudy weather.

Break!

An unexpected, appreciated, break in the cloud deck made for a bright sky and dark landscape

Grey

Grey clouds dominate a late January landscape.

I try to be grateful for this season’s muted colours. I’m forced to look more closely to find beauty now and will be more appreciative of the colours of late winter and spring blooms.

Wishing you a good Wednesday. I will be back Thursday.

Placid

A raft of waterfowl rest on placid water.

Rank

A rank of trees almost disappears into the fog.

It’s official.

We have adopted Fitzi.

The adoption contact is signed by all parties (while Fitzi didn’t sign we judge from the photo that he’s OK with the arrangement).

A deep and heartfelt ‘thank you’ to NOLA Lab Rescue to let us foster and then to adopt him. I’m very moved by their trust and faith in us. He’s the right dog at the right time.

Welcome home sir.

Cosy

A recent, extraordinarily foggy afternoon led me to feel cosy and thoughtful during the trip home.
