Well...I was hoping for pink trees and purple shadows when
I got up this morning. What I got was orange trees and blue skies.
Did I leave the house too late to catch that first tinge of color
as the sun rose from behind the Speedway grandstands?
I dunno. I guess I have to try again tomorrow,
making certain I leave the house as soon after 7 a.m.
as I can manage. Whether there will be a blush
of color similar to what I saw on the trees in the park,
I can't say until I check it out for myself.
In the meanwhile, feel the, er, warmth of the sun
as it shines it's orange-y self on the trees.
See that kind of scum on the surface of the water?
That's a thin skin of ice.
While I'm looking forward to seeing this scene
covered in snow, I was so glad to be coming home to
a nice breakfast and a pot of hot coffee.
