We shall be released / Waking up just in time





Yesterday I was drowsy in the late afternoon and took a long nap.  The sound of hard rain woke me up in the early evening.  I felt like going back to sleep, but instead I got up and was rewarded with an extraordinary sky show that began with a fragment of a rainbow.







































































Thinking the sky show was over, I came in from my porch and turned to my laptop for my Spanish lesson of the day.  The next time I looked out the window, I saw the nearly full moon appearing and disappearing again and again behind the fast moving clouds:

Beautiful skies there. I love that video of the moon. I've been so distracted by the pandemic news that I completely forgot the full moon rising last night. Love the music. Thank you for all of it.

There is so much to see if we take the time to look.

Love the bird calls in your moon video. How lucky that you decided to get up and check things out. I love afternoon naps, when they overtake me I happily give in.
