Sometimes words don’t do it justice. You just have to observe.

From March 30th.

Grab a cup of hot tea, kick your feet up, take a deep breath in, close your eyes and smile.

Today is good.

 

We’re patient for spring. We wait with great anticipation.

There are days here where the spark has to come from within.

When we look outside and want to grab a blanket and not leave our house.

Do you seek peace? Look to the sky.

Do you seek inspiration? Look to the sky.

Do you seek hope? Look to the sky.

A new day can bring all three and then some.

May the road rise up to meet you.

May the wind be always at your back.

May the sun shine warm upon your face.

And the rains fall soft upon your fields.

Until we meet again, my friend, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

 

Here comes the sun!

 

One more day before sun.

 

That was supposed to be posted on Friday.

No mountain today, but here is a small patch of blue sky.



This morning’s sky was fickle, bringing rain and then sun and then more rain.

We have to grab onto the moments when it smiles at us.

Today Mount Hood is brought to you through the eyes of a youngster -

with all of its colors and magic and mystery and excitement!

They say that the early bird gets the worm.

In Portland, the early bird gets the worm and then some…

(pft!) and just like that, it’s gone…

 

 

Lay a palette of colors in front of you every morning, choose your favorite, and paint the sky.

Some people rise and shine with a cup of steaming coffee.

In Portland, we rise with a luminous mountaintop view.

PINK. The color of bubble gum.

PINK. Cheeks after a compliment.

PINK.  Roses that say I love you.

PINK. The Portland sky – March 2, 2016.

Blue skies smilin’ at me, nothing but blue skies, do I see…

 

 

 

 

It's a good day today.
