Winter Sunrise

Sunrise reflecting off The Enchantments.

A thisck fog is rolling east over the highest peaks of The Enchantments, leaving those peaks partially obscured and partially in shadows.  The nearer peaks however are reflecting a bright pink-white – filling the surrounding mist with shades of pink and purple.

As the sun makes her trek into the sky, the colors shift – adding more yellow and giving the mist a peachy glow.

The mist will most likely burn off soon, but watching it drift through the colors of the rainbow is one of my favorite winter morning activities.

What about you?  What do you like to do on a cold winter morning?

Whether it involves getting outside, or snuggling back under the covers, set your timer and get ready to write about it.

Fall Traditions

My daughter loves to do creative projects. Sewing, drawing, building … or even carving.

Creative projects have defined many of our annual traditions, and in October, that creativity is expressed in a jack-o-lantern.

This year’s jack-o-lantern ended up being a whole camping scene with car, trailer, and tiny pumpkin person. It’s definitely the most elaborate we’ve ever had.

Watching her carve and create was so amazing … especially since we don’t get to see her in action much since she’s all grown up.

What about you? What are your fall traditions? If you don’t have any, what would you like to start?

Set your timer for 5 minutes and get ready to write about it.
