When blue meets blue. . .

I took this photo this past week when I was feeling my lowest after Glenn's passing . . . I think God arranged this to cheer me up. . . God's in His heavens and all is right with the world.

Blue skies alamode

Almost as yummy as a piece of pie a la mode! The weatherman says we will have this for at least the next 5 days! Hurrah! I am tired of rain.

Why I haven't been around to visit blogs yet today. . .

See that beautiful blue sky backdrop? YES! It belongs to us here in Vancouver and surrounding vicinity. After days and days of fog, we have BLUE SKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I took a long walk along the river today. walking part way to Wintler Park and then to Marine Park and a bit more to catch the bus home. I have lots of wonderful photos to share in the coming days.

I even saw Mt. Hood in Oregon because we had clear skies! It's been a long time since we had a clear sky day to see Mt. Hood. So, while the people back east are "freezing to death," we are experiencing temperatures in the lower 50's this week. . . I had a wonderful day out walking.

I will be around to visit my regular bunch tonight. . .
My friend at "Bears in Exile -- Return Home" reminded me they are Sweet Gum Burrs that I photographed the blue sky background through. Thanks! I could not remember the name.

Blog Your Blessings Sunday #44

If you care to join us acknowledging our blessings go here: Blue Panther

Some consider the days after Labor Day to be Fall or Autumn but it really hasn't arrived yet. . . the nights may be getting cooler and it gets darker sooner but that wonderful sunshine that brings high temperatures and blue skies is with us for an extended season called "Indian Summer." Most people know this season who live in the north east but I grew up with it in SE Idaho and I have lived all over the United States except the deep south and enjoyed it there too. These hot days after Labor Day have been welcomed by me and others and I consider it a blessing when we are celebrating them because all too soon it will be Fall with the steady rains and then Winter, hopefully with some snow, then Spring flowers before Summer comes again.

Thank you, Lord, for the sunshine!
