When morning gilds the skies ...


I've been chasing the sunrise lately, but lagging on the catch. My own fault since I'm always up at 5. September has been extraordinarily busy, however, and it's easy to get preoccupied with the details --- this morning it was laundry --- and miss the big show. Glanced out the back door and, whoops, there was the sun. I'll get there yet.

The promised sunflower show is developing nicely and it tends to look best beginning about 7:30 when the sun is high enough to illuminate it any way.

Asters (I think these are New England, but won't swear to it) are coming into full bloom, too, offering counterpoint.

What a great day to be alive!
