A Beautiful Sunset by Sara

We had such a beautiful sunset tonight, it drew Sara out into the bitter cold to snap some pics, no gloves, brrr. She really enjoys photography, comes by it honestly. Both my dad and mom have been photographers and Barry really enjoys it as well, though he hasn't had time to develop it as he'd like. So, here are a few she took out beyond our family room doors, toward the barn.
The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Psalm 19:1
Those who dwell at the ends of the earth are in awe at your signs. You make the going out of the morning and the evening to shout for joy. Ps65:8
It is still very cold and we have a pretty cover of snow, a bit more to come tomorrow, maybe an inch. We're cheering for a bit more since we haven't had enough for sledding or x-country skiing yet. Sara's feet have probably grown large for her boots though, so that will slow the skiing. We'll see. She loves to ski. I wasn't able to do much skiing last year, due to some knee issues, so hoping to get out this winter. Mattthew is settled in to school and reports that he likes his new profs. He's enjoying himself because he read ahead in his books over break and now he's "kickin' back" while his friends are reading. Well, it took forever to download those pictures, so now it's way past my bedtime.

It truly is beautiful. There is something very "grounding" about nature. I read several of you posts, you write beautifully, almost poetically, IMO. Thanks for sharing you moments with me! Elaine
