Outside My Window ~ 6.17.2012
Outside my window…is the closing hours on the final Sunday for Spring 2012. According to the Old Farmer’s Almanac the Summer Solstice will occur on June 20, 2012 at 7:09 p.m.. Next week the view will change outside my window…summer is here. It is almost 6:00 in the evening in Hampton Roads….the sky is mostly cloudy but there are snippets of blue sky and sunshine…and the temperature right now is about 70°F. There is very little chance of rain tonight and for the most part the clouds that are out right now are white and fluffy. It has been a mild and breezy weekend….my wind chimes sang plenty of songs…

Today was his birthday…
Life Lessons You may have thought I didn’t see, Or that I hadn’t heard, Life lessons that you taught to me, But I got every word. Perhaps you thought I missed it all, And that we’d grow apart, But Dad, I picked up everything, It’s written on my heart. Without you, Dad, I wouldn’t be The woman I am today; You built a strong foundation No one can take away. I’ve grown up with your values, And I’m very glad I did; So here’s to you, dear father, From your forever grateful kid. By Joanna Fuchs Happy Birthday Dad….I hope your day was an amazing one….I love you! ♥

When I would travel during the days of film, I would snap a photograph here and there from the plane…but not too many because they were typically risky shots. You were shooting through a fairly dirty window to begin with and the lighting can be tricky at times. This time, I was digital and I could delete the ones that didn’t make the cut. You can still see some window grime in some of these images, but these were…

Thursday Thoughts ~ Florida Edition
Some of you knew I went to Melbourne Beach, Florida for a few days this past Saturday. My oldest daughter flew down with me. The weather wasn’t quite what we thought we would get when we visited the sunshine state. We arrived Saturday morning sometime after a torrential downpour but before the wind and rain went completely nuts. The weather began to go downhill Friday evening but fortunately let up enough Saturday morning about the time our plane was due to land. This was the view out of the front window of their home Saturday afternoon….looking north. Riding out a “no name” tropical storm on a barrier island can be…
