“Time To Zip Up” Our 80 degree temperatures of today are going to become freezing temperatures over the next couple of days. Like most of the United States, Texas is preparing for its first blast of cold air of this season. I am ready for it! I like the cold. Tonight I dug out my warm clothes wool coat. I am looking forward to the days when I can come home from school and put on my sweats and flannel…
“Look!” …a good piece of advice for all of us. And I am finally caught up!!!
“Us In November” Today’s photo was supposed to be a portrait using interesting light. Truthfully, I was uninspired. There is not much creativity here and there certainly isn’t any interesting light.

“Looking Up” I did’t see much sun on my path today, but I was struck by the sun coming through the tree in our neighbor’s from yard.
“Reflection” I am still playing catch-up with regard to posting photos here, but I did get back on track as far as taking my daily shots beginning on November 1st. On the first of November, All Saints Day, we celebrated my dad’s life at a memorial service held at St. Pete’s episcopal Church in Lewes.
