Things I’m working on

Hobby or Habit

Things to ponder...., , , , , ,

While reviewing old photographs, I found a large collection of sunset shots. 

Do I take these photos as a hobby, or has it become a habit?

I never set out to build such a collection, yet I have many. And still, I frequently stop to snap a quick shot at the day’s end, adding yet another.

I never tire of sunsets.

The day’s end

The gift of a sunset

Given the opportunity

It’s a time to stop

Appreciate beauty

Reflect on the day

Savor the quiet

Unwind

Relax

This luxury is all possible simply because the Earth
revolved one more time around the sun.

Ambiance

Evening dinner at Solana Beach Fish House. Hubby says they have the best “fish & chips,” me, I enjoy their grilled fish tacos. Yummy food, lovely evening.

Sweetness

Light Hearted Living..., , , ,

Late afternoon walk on the land
finds us checking new growth on plants,
contemplating irragation schedules.

The orange globes dot the tree.
We know, soon they will be ready
for harvest.

Suddenly the air around is filled with
heavenly perfume. The little white
stars of the tree are releasing their fragrance.

Orange blossoms, with the promise of
next year’s fruit, fill the air with the
scent of sweet perfume.

We forget all else as this lofty
scent fills us up. A great promise of
hope and good things to come.

Such a welcome treat for us.
A reminder to savor the
natural gifts of each day.

Twists and Turns

Things to ponder...., , , ,

Life, the twists and turns.

In the midst of the journey

one may not recognize the destination

Yet, from a distance

there is beauty.

The challenge is to enjoy the journey.

Home Again

Light Hearted Living..., , , , , ,

Home again…after spending a week in Minnesota cold, where we enjoyed family togetherness, good food, laugher, holiday lights, and lots of family game time.

Today, the postman delivered this to to us, 

so we can continue a German tradition at our house.

More fun times to come.
