Today is the first day of autumn, and it has started quietly and beautifully. Not even the squirrels were up when I took the dog out for his constitutional at 7:30. It's nice when simple moments feel momentous. Here's a great story about the equinox and why it isn't equal at all.

a quiet start to the day and the season sounds nice. :)
ReplyDeleteI agree, a lovely start for the season! I do love those quiet moments early in the morning before everything starts churning! Sam Schnauzer loves his early morning walks, too! Have a great weekend, Sandy!
ReplyDeleteA quiet entry to a wonderful season. How nice, Sandy!

Informative link. Momentous moments are seldom simple but as human we want to grab oversimplifications to make sense of things that are too complex to go on about. Good thing there are scientists as well as poets in the world. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for this inspiration !
ReplyDeletePlease have you all a good Sunday.
I love your milkweed pods as much as your cars.
ReplyDeleteBut, mostly, I love it when you visit my blog and comment.
I just take a deep breath, and relax, and breath in your faith and your spirit.
With respect from Cottage Country!
Here in the tropics, because we dont have 4 seasons, we are not mindful of the equinoxes. We are more aware of the constant possible cause of calamities like drought, typhoons and ITCZs! But i love the transition i see in countries of other bloggers like your lovely photo.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great way to start Autumn. I'm off to read the link but didn't want to forget to comment.
ReplyDeleteBTW, is that someone you know in the wonderful photo on your sidebar? (with the President and the wonderful message which which I heartily agree).
I love browns, so earthy!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot. Let us have a great autumn ahead!
Great shot! The article on equinox is very interesting.
ReplyDeleteour long nights have started...like Andrea said, we're not very conscious of the equinoxes here.:p but i love the longer nights when the "ber" months arrive.:p
ReplyDeletelove the photo---it depicts the mellowness of autumn.
And ... here in the Brasil spring begins.
ReplyDeleteIt is when the flowers get more force, because flowers have practically the whole year, because our winter is not too cold.
beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThat was interesting.
ReplyDeleteI wish when I looked up at the stars I could see the patterns like that
I always have trouble.I don't even know what kind of stars we should look for up here in BC
I've seen a few shooting stars.North star.
At my country place I am sure there is a huge satellite above my house
At night when I lie down I see this huge circle of lights. At first I thought it was a UFO lol
Beautiful seed pods!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shot of the Milkweed pods.
ReplyDeletePink and White Lantana
Beautifully said...and depicted.
ReplyDeleteWild thing!
ReplyDeleteThose early morning walks with your dog must be lovely and you get to share super photos with us too :) Have a great week Sandy!
ReplyDeleteWe have something in common...
ReplyDeleteWe both enjoy early morning walks. They are my most precious hours of the day.
Very lovely picture indeed!
So beautiful! It feels like Fall at our end now.
ReplyDeleteVisiting from Today's flower. Come and see my Rose
I love the photo and the thought of you walking the dog in the early autumn morn!
