A beautiful way of seeing

Dear Laurel,

  I smiled the whole way through this short video--couldn't help it, because he's right. I loved the colors and the questions and the ideas.  I think you'll love it, too.  (I found the link at CuriousAcorn.)

All my best,
Kate

Morning light

Dear Sonja,

Today I'm grateful for the early morning light and for colors that change by the minute.  Sometimes as the dark part of the year comes I forget to look for light in the most logical places.  The cold air I brought back into the house has already started to dissipate, but I'm hoping I'll carry the light with me all day long.

All my best,
Kate

A change of light

Dear Sonja,

Have you noticed how the light has changed?  With the angle of light changing daily and the filter of smoke from the wildfires the world looks very different than it did a month ago.  Today I moved my tomato pots so they could get every single minute of sun--I had to move them a distance of six feet!  This change of season gives us all a chance for a new perspective on many things, starting with the way we actually see our surroundings.  The gentle afternoon sunlight on these nectarines stopped me mid-heartbeat.

All my best,

Kate
