One Quick Photo

Just one quick photo and a brief message to say that "Sunlit Sunday" will be up and running at 8 pm (EST) on Saturday. Thank you to all who participated during the past two weeks while I was away in Arizona. I appreciate that you kept things going.

New people are always welcome to join in this meme. See here for the details. Let's brighten up February together!

☀Sunlit Sunday: Season 2, Week #5

Hello from sunny Arizona, everyone! My little net book isn't letting me edit photos this evening, so here are a few straight out of the camera. These three were taken at the beautiful Boyce Thompson Arboretum. 

My first few days in this gorgeous state may have been cloudy and rainy, but all of that has changed. Sunny Arizona has a rugged beauty and I am having a wonderful time experiencing it!

☀Sunlit Sunday: Season 2, Week #4

Hello, All! 

I'm in "sunny" Arizona, but the sun has been missing!  It's pouring rain right now, which is bound to confuse the cacti. 

I'm counting on you to provide some sunshine this week. I'll visit when I can over the next few days. Please forgive me if I'm a bit slow, but I'm  houseguest right now and I want to be a good one!

Chat amongst yourselves, won't you?

A Few Peaceful Moments

To indulge in a few peaceful moments, I like:

 

 a good book,

 

 

something blooming,

 

 

sweet fragrance,

 and a cup of camomile tea.

 Here's hoping you find some peaceful moments in your busy day.

 Do you have favourite ways to enjoy them?

☀Sunlit Sunday: Season 2, Week #3

Welcome to another week of ☀Sunlit Sunday, the time to share a bit of sunshine (actual or metaphorical) during the wintry, first few months of the year.

This photo was taken from my porch in the early evening. It pleases me to think that, for about 60 years, people in this little house have enjoyed similar colourful views, regardless of the overhead wires.

Inside, the play of light accents a couple of jugs and an oversized teacup sitting on the counter, creating subtle images on the wall.

 As the light is ephemeral, the look quickly changes.

One of the jugs has now been put to use holding a bouquet of sunshine. 

These blooms may also be ephemeral, but were a gift that I'll share with you.

Your Turn, Friends!
