You guys have had more precip in snow than you have in rain .

I’m hoping the attack of “the dry” doesn’t persist.

Close enough to full.
I snapped a pic of the moon hanging just below sunset-lit clouds on my new phone.
Now I gotta figure out how to transfer the pic to someplace I can post it from...

The snow really did help, but there has to be more. I also hope that this year won’t be a repeat of last year. It was nearly unbearable.

I hopr you don’t have floods, so your garden won’t get drowned or washed away!

We have been fortunate so far..

When it has been really cold it has been dry.

Raining when temps are fairly warm.

I was just reading about our blizzard in 78.. I could do without another one...period.

I took this picture this evening. It was really a spur-of-the-moment thing. I glanced up at the sky while waiting for Nana to get home and saw the full moon hanging just below a bank of sunset-tinged clouds. I'm sure you can see skies like this somewhere else in the world, although I'm not at all sure where that somewhere else might be. Maybe Hawaii, but wouldn't bet on it.

I bought an HTC EVO 4G last month and am still learning how to make it work. Or sing, as the case may be. Hopefully, this will upload to my social media site correctly, and the album share is set so that I can link to it from here. If not, y'all are missing out on a breath-taking picture worthy of an Arizona Highways spread!

I know...that’s why I post it ever so often...to give you and a few others a chance to reminisce.

That’s what my day was - mostly quiet.
I think it’s time now to call it a night, though. Tomorrow is liable to be anything but quiet!
See you later.

Aloha Jinxy!

Seen a lot of moonrises that I wished I'd photographed (same with sunrises and sunsets in different parts of globe). Yours brought back memories the twilight while I was crossing the New Mexico/Texas border many years ago when the colors, both on the mesas and sky made me stop and watch till dark.

Here's a spectacle that as far as I know could only happen in Hawaii. Moon rise in Mauna Kea's shadow at sunset.



(Not one upmanship......just a reminder to take a look around sometimes to see real beauty when it happens.)
