What the day brings

Yesterday morning, I stepped outside just before sunrise and was met with the most incredible site - a sky so beautiful it had me running back inside for my camera.

This was definitely the most lovely sky of the day. An hour later the clouds began to thicken and by the end of the day it had started to seem as if someone had used a cosmic version of Photoshop to desaturate the sky,


This morning, just before dawn, I stepped outside to be met by a different version of beauty. Silent and cold, the mist and fog had everything shrouded, making the trees appear ghostly.

And did I mention cold? Freakishly cold!!

But hey, it's still a good day. It's all in the attitude:)

I'm in the danger zone!

You know you've said it at least once (or a thousand times)... "when hell freezes over".

I used to say that a lot. Until I moved to Florida. Then I switched to "when it snows in Central Florida."

Well, damn. I'm in the danger zone here. I heard one weather report that said we may get snow flurries this weekend.

Hmmm, does that mean I now have to:

1. Eat sea urchin
2. Wear bright orange
3. Buy a pair of stilettos
4. Ride the space ride at Disney
5. Ride the mechanical bull backwards
6. Watch football
7. Wear a pair of capri pants (with those stilettos)
8. Drink beer
9. Go bungee jumping
10. Swim with the sharks

Maybe I'll switch back to "when hell freezes over".
