Just a Cool Photo

I’ve been organizing my summer travel photos (finally). I realized to my horror that I hadn’t even edited our visit to Fraunces Tavern in New York City (haven’t even blogged about it yet!!). I had already wiped out the SD camera card!!! But thank God, I had the raw photos on my computer. Score one, Mom. Close one.

I found a few very nice Hudson River photos in the bunch. The photo, above, is one of them. I snapped them while on the train ride home. Train travel is so pleasant. I really can’t wait to go again. I must first earn a bit more cash to afford those tickets, however. I’m not earning the salary of raleigh attorneys, let’s put it that way. But I do hope to go soon. There is always so much to see!

Run Away With Me….

Autumn Sets In

The sun is lower in the horizon now. Yellows and oranges appear not only on the tree leaves but also in the sun’s rays. I rose with the sun this morning, watching the day shift from dusky blues to pinks to an interesting orange color.

The colors were lovely, rather feminine like colors on bridal shower invitations: mauve, dusky orange- lovely, really.

Winter approaches. Soon the sun will be a white ball in a bitter, gray sky. I miss the colors then. Still, I like winter because I can concentrate on all the “inside” things I have to do. The gardening, mowing, weeding, renovating and other activities don’t distract me then.

What are your plans this winter?
