#100HappyDays :: Day 27

After a long busy day, coming home to the sun coming through the window just right and the kitchen filled with the savory smells of dinner.  I am very happy to have had the forethought of the crockpot yesterday!

#100HappyDays :: Day 16

Beautiful washes of morning sunlight.

A happy beginning to any day.

Wordless Wednesday ~ Tangled

Happiness Is....

......being able to capture a shot in the two minutes that the early fall light looks like this in my kitchen.

Darkness and Light

 Each morning I look out the window and watch the sunrise.  This morning it was striking the change in location of the sun.  It has happened gradually, but with many mornings of clouds and fog was disguised, and it's now obvious skew now hits me.  It has now taken up residence much further South in our tree line.  In fact, the sun will barely reach above that tree line these days at it progresses much lower across the sphere each day.  We are now almost dark by about 4:20.  I relish that special angled light this time of year as we approach the solstice, and that darkest night before the light slowly returns.  It is almost as if we are watching the sun nap, and she will soon begin to stir and stretch, as she slowly begins her climb back up higher in the sky.

These Truths

This is another of Sidney's light shots from earlier this week

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” ―

Thomas Jefferson, The Declaration of Independence

A safe and happy Fourth of July to Everyone!
