 Rowing the boat you
see clearly where you have been -
      In life much the same.

 Sunshine in clear sky,
Start of a lovely new day.
       Clouds on horizon.

 Two turtles on log,
Charlie in lawn chair on deck -
      rest hour at the lake.

Rest hour is from 12:30 to 1:30, or 2:00, or 2:30, or........

 Sweet, salty, crunchy -
how many servings was that?
       Toffee roast peanuts!

Ok - I ate the whole 4.5 oz (1 oz per serving) bag. Once you start it's hard to stop!

 Bonus haiku from yesterday -

After a dull day
with gray clouds and steady rain -
      An All-Star sunset! 

 

Eternal God,
you look down from heaven
on the wisdom and the foolishness
of humankind -
Abram lay on his back out in the field
looking up at the stars in the heavens,
and you said, "So will your descendents be"
and Abram believed it.
Jesus said "You could store up your treasures in heaven," 
and "Keep your lamps trimmed and burning 
  and when the Master comes he will seat you at the table 
  and serve you himself"
and I believe it. 
Or at least I am trying to today.
I am trying to today.

 Tomatoes, onions,
cilantro sauteed - pasta.
      Needed something else.

 It's all blue up there -
no clouds, no haze, no smoke - blue!
        We call it "the sky".

Ok - that was from first thing this morning. Clouded up by noon, but it was nice for a while.

Half daylight, half dark. Our equinox wish for you -        more joy, less sorrow!
