Sky

1/25/2021

The author, Washington Irving, said that people who live in cities have about as much chance of seeing the sky as a frog in a well.
I did enjoy the humor in that, but now, life in the country has proven it to be so true.
We have windows in the kitchen and in the sunroom that face east. I love the morning sun, but the Eastern exposure also give us incredible beauty we would not see if we lived in town.

The sunrise here is spectacular at any time of year. The long horizon and big sky show us so many colors.

End of day is equally beautiful,
​as the moon rises over the pond.

And we are frequently blessed with rainbows! Always colorful, often double, and sometimes we get the full display, side to side.
Don't forget to get up, look up, and enjoy the beauty.

    Anita has a long background rooted in traditional handwork and quiltmaking, which she still enjoys.

    Often, these days, you'll find her digitizing patterns for the Statler Stitcher and other computerized longarm quilting machines. 
     
    Her summer days are spent in the garden and she loves finding new ways to prepare good veggie-based meals.


    She's always in search of a way to balance all of those activities and find time to share with others who are passionate about the same things.

    This page is a sneak peek into what's happening in her world right now.
