Mornings spent outdoors are always enjoyable, but some mornings are special. For me, this was one of those mornings at Lake Lamar Bruce in Saltillo, MS.
Does ANY other country have to spend so long looking for themselves on drop-down menus? It could be Britain, England (or Scotland, Wales, NI), GB, Great Britain, United Kingdom, UK - spread right the way though the alphabet - and I’m sure there are a few other variations.
I’m tempted to start adding up the amount of time I waste on this, and making a colourful little gauge that tells me how many books not having that time has deprived me of.
A spectacular morning filled with completely mesmerizing colors as the clouds moved across the sky. This scene is from one of my favorite local places. Lake Lamar Bruce, Saltillo MS
It's not a yellow brick road, and it doesn't lead to the Emerald City: it's better than that. It's a quiet, winding path through country fields, leading to and through a place of peace where you can stop and think awhile.
When I was a kid, I used to take a lot of rambling walks through the country, and while as an adult I tend to plan my hikes, I still enjoy a good ramble. You never know what you'll see when you crest that little hill.
We don't get much of a Fall here in Florida. But when we do get it, we get it in Winter...LOL We have two maples right outside my studio window. High was 68 today...that's about as Autumn as it gets here!
After a hot, dry summer, the first rain of early, early autumn is most welcome. When it comes to weather, our memories are better than what we're told on TV.
