This grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never all dried at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal sunset, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls.
-John Muir, naturalist, explorer, and writer (1838-1914)

Gorgeous. I am sitting on my back deck this morning enjoying the sunshine and this made me look up and take deeper notice of my surroundings.
Thanks.
I love that word "gloaming". Enjoy!
Nature brings back the child in our eyes and heart....
Everyone should consider a place such as this their own spiritual Mecca, regardless of their religious beliefs.
At least once in a lifetime we should commune with the purest expression of creation available to us - after giving birth to our children - and I believe we would feel the love and active forgiveness of our planet and do our best never to harm it.
I have read that writing before ... An amazing bit of wordsmithing there.
I love the wispy hint of spiderweb on your flower. We all have bits of detritus clinging to our beauty.
Have fun at Yosemite!
I have you have had a lovely, peaceful trip. I hope you had a wonderful birthday. I did think of you all day. With love.
i'm so glad you and the boys are in this wonderful place... enjoy every minute! (love the quote)
I love that quote. I'm having a great day after coming back from Cornwall yesterday. Missed your blog a lot. Many thanks.
Greetings from London.
Ooo, I want to hear all about Yosemite! Are you back? Have you showered?
Glorious...I love the wispy spider's web around the blossom.
OMG your son is handsome! (Not that I should be surprised.) And also? Happy Birthday!
