Keep Looking

       Keep Looking Up. These three words helped me as I was growing up. They reminded me that I was not alone, there was someone else to help me shoulder my burdens. This knowledge gave my young mind peace and security, if not serenity.
       Today, I focus on the first two words:
Keep Looking
       Since regaining my vision recently, I can't seem to stop marvelling at the beauty that lies outdoors, especially the sky. Courtesy of our own atmosphere (however embattled) we have a pro-offered pallette of peace. Diamond-lit black at midnight, infinite white at high-noon, oranges, yellows, and purples at twilight. And the blues! From slate and cesious, to celeste and hyacinthine, nothing is a better backdrop for what the earth yields then these heavenly colors.

Back From the Blur

Hello Bloggers!

Soooo glad to be back on the computer!
Thanks to my faithful followers for sticking with me!
I have been going through many of my pics from last year
and have deleted many because they were blurry.
(After my fourth eye surgery and with my new "bionic" eyes,
I now can see all of my mistakes! : ( )


Too hot in Illinois to get out and take pics,
but here is one from the
Air Force Memorial in Washington, DC.
It was taken last October by my husband while he was escorting
a WWII veteran on an "Honor Flight."
 Since he rarely uses the camera, I think he did pretty good, don't you?
