Positive Thinking ....

I am looking out my window this morning

dark and foggy

it has been rainy all week

I think it is time to share a few brights just in time for fall

Enjoy!!

Wandering Ridge Shoulder Bag

To behold the wandering moon
Riding near her highest noon
Like one that had been led astray
Through the heav'n's wide pathless way
And oft, as if her head she bowed
Stooping through a fleecy cloud.
•John Milton•

Western Skies CrossOver Bag

if they ever saw a sunrise on a mountain mornin'
watched those cotton candy clouds roll by
they'd know why I live beneath these Western Skies
•Chris Ledoux•

Hope you have a Most Glorious 

and Sunny 

Weekend!

Monday Bits

Today we wake up to clear blue skies 

rather than dreary over cast gray fog ..

(like we've had for the last 2 weeks)

it's going to be a good day!!!

I hope you have an enjoyable one as well........... ♦♦

quiet

learn to be quiet enough

to hear the genuine within yourself

so that you can hear it in others

I love fall

to me it is a time of reflection

summer pace has slowed a bit

mornings are cool & crisp

the light is golden

and need I say

the year is nearing a close

where does the time go?

Lemon Twist

thou art to me a delicious torment

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Mint Julep

delicious autumn! 

my very soul is wedded to it

and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth 

seeking the successive autumns

George Eliot

Wasabi Wonders

the air soft as that of Seville in April

and so fragrant that is was 

delicious to breathe it

trekking

Mount Rainier National Park

in the native language Rainier is Tahoma

"mother of many waters"

how very true

elevation 14,411

considered one of the most dangerous volcanoes

and right out our back door  ... hummmm....

the trees are God's great alphabet

with them he writes in shining green

across the world His thoughts are serene

Leonora Speyer

between every two pines is a doorway to a new world

John Muir

you feel so small in the forest of giant ancients

it makes you giggly 

it's like being a kid again  

Silver Falls

the mighty roar was deafening

what splendid power!

I love the little world 

a little hot chocolate pick-me-up?

the human spirit needs places where 

nature has not been rearranged by the human hand of man

Earth laughs in flowers

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Wild Delphinium and Indian Paintbrush

the natives would use the beautiful purple/blue 

delphiniums as dye for their baskets

flowers seem intended for the solace 

of ordinary humanity

John Ruskin

climb the mountains and get their good tidings

nature's peace will flow into you 

as sunshine flows into trees

the winds will blow their own freshness into you

and the storms their energy

while cares will drop off like autumn leaves

John Muir
