A strange thing happened today. The sky turned an odd and uncommon color -- deep blue -- and a bright orb appeared at the horizon early and climbed into the sky above. I thought it was always supposed to be cloudy based on the past days.
Another wonderful outcome of the light winds and cold temperatures greeted us this morning on every limb and weed.
