Blue Sky – Blue Sky
Blackish blue night sky
Quiet Moonbeams cry
All through the night
Stars twinkling bright
Morning brings a splash
Of blue – The new day
Bathed in predawn dew –
Then panoramic baby blue –
Purple sky – dusky blue –
Hails the end of baby blue –
Til morning finds her way – and
Day begins anew in blue

When we get up in the morning, often the sun has yet to rise. Morning is my favorite time of day. As soon as a shard of light appears on the edge of our shades, I pull them up to expose the morning blue sky.
We are wintering in Arizona this year, 2018. Next year, 2019, we plan to winter in Florida and will give ourselves until November 2018 to get there. Steve and I both have family in the east. While seeing the country is our objective, visiting family we find more enjoyable than anything else. We expect to return to Arizona for the winter of 2019.
Steve and I have just recovered from a harsh virus, maybe the flu, maybe not. God is good. We are fine and will resume having fun with our friends and family soon.
Sorry to hear of your physical struggle, glad you have both recovered. How nice to be able to spend winter wherever you like–and being near family is the best! Blessings to you!

Thank you. We are doing well now. We need to plan our way to Florida. Changing our way of traveling to allow more time to rest along the way is a challenge. We look forward to the new plan, yet we are reluctant to be gone from AZ until Winter 2019-2020.

Such a beautiful photo, Carol Ann! I love mornings as well. I’ve been doing a bit of catch-up on your blog. What adventures you and Steve are having. Oh my, you are brave. I love the pink tires on your bike. That photo of you made me happy inside. 😀

Nice to hear from you, Laura. We are wintering in Arizona right now. We will start out again in mid-April. We like bike riding but haven’t done as much of it as we expected, but we plan to increase our biking expeditions. Blessings to you …
