Dawn


A beautiful day is beginning as I view the moon from the deck at the edge of the woods.

When you arise in the morning, think of what a privilege it is to be alive -
to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love ~~

What a privilege. And...what a privilege to be able to visit your blog so nice and early.

Great moon shots, the trees have mostly dropped their leaves, the barren winter witness.

Being thankful give me an energy boost.

Wishing you a fine day!

My mother's favorite saying was,"I thank god that I wake up every day."

What a beautiful shot of the trees and that slice of a moon peeping through!

Ah yes, I drove home at 6 am from LM's this morning and that beautiful crescent moon was lighting my way as down began to show its lovely glow over the Atlantic, and I was reveling in life. The very cold air was such a gift to my lungs, as well.
Lovely photos....
