The sky this morning was beautiful, the clear azure blue of September. Nothing but a half moon and a large luminous feather shaped cloud were pinned in the sky. I stood and looked at the feather cloud in amazement. I was too dumbfounded to run and get my camera to take a photo. It looked…

Beautiful drive home this morning from Georgia. Followed the pristine white clouds and turquoise sky all the way back to Alabama. I’m perched in my porch swing now watching the clouds float by to the melodies of bird songs and wind chimes. Glad to be safely home with lots of wonderful memories filed away. Watched…

Rerunning a favorite blog from January — Pretty day today, a little cool, but when the sun hit the porch swing, I sat on the porch and enjoyed watching a college of cardinals, a charm of finches, a chime of wrens, a booby of nuthatches, a banditry of chickadees, and a cote of doves. I…

Rerunning an old blog from May — Today has been a beautiful day in so many ways. Woke up to vivid blue skies. Saw lots of birds on the feeders. Ate breakfast on the porch. Finally had a hummingbird visitor. He was so chubby. Don’t know how he flies around on his tiny wings with…

Had a beautiful day with my granddaughter. Our day was as bright and happy as the azure blue sky and its white fluffy clouds. Now, like the setting sun I’m laying my head down and painting my sunset with the glorious colors that memories are made of. I’m ending my night with one of my…

I’m visiting my grandchildren for the Labor Day holiday. I’ve done my pondering on their back porch this afternoon watching them play. The temperature is just perfect for porch sitting. My drive up to Peachtree City was under an overcast sky. The sky canvas was dirty white, trying to muster up some rain but just…

Penelope and I enjoyed the porch this morning. The sky was summer blue just bursting with every cloud imaginable. The sky looked like a sketch pad of Father Sky’s. He was sketching all the clouds, trying to decided which ones to paint on his sky canvas. I was hoping he would fill the sky with…

Prettiest of mornings outside! Hard to believe the chaos of Idalia is spinning around below us on the map. Prayers for all those affected by the storm. The fighting finches are back squabbling and disturbing the peace of a beautiful summer morning. I know they irritate the cardinals. The sky is azure blue in my…

First visit to the porch this morning, I noticed how pretty the sky was, dark blue, sparkling clean. Just a few clouds, drawn in straight lines. The clouds looked like God had struck his white pastel stick across the sky in two places and then used his finger to smudge the strokes. I walked Penelope…

Was sitting in the swing this morning, eating breakfast, pondering on my day, and hoping the swing didn’t fall while I was drinking a cup of hot coffee. It’s 79 degrees! Perfect for porch sitting and bird watching and cloud watching and butterfly watching. The sky is blue, lots of summer white clouds floating by.…
