Day Two Hundred Eighty Five 2012

Snapshots From A Thursday In October

Lunch with Peeps in the park

Sky was blue and then it wasn’t

Walk around the block stepping on dying leaves

“I've got nothing to do today but smile.”
~Simon and Garfunkel

Day Seventy Five 2012

Because of the assassination and the soothsayer's exchange with Julius Caesar about the dangers he faced in Shakespeare's Julius Caesar tragedy, the Ides of March now signifies a fateful day. Here is the relevant passage:

Caesar:  Who is it in the press that calls on me? 
I hear a tongue shriller than all the music 
Cry "Caesar!" Speak, Caesar is turn'd to hear.

Soothsayer: Beware the ides of March. 

Caesar: What man is that?

Brutus: A soothsayer bids you beware the ides of March.

Julius Caesar Act 1, scene 2, 15-19

 What a day! Maybe even a fateful day. Don't even get me started.....

Day Thirty Seven 2012

I did not err; there does a sable cloud
Turn forth her silver lining on the night,
And casts a gleam over this tufted grove.

~John Milton coined the phrase 'silver lining' in Comus: A Mask Presented at Ludlow Castle, 1634

Day Eleven 2012

If I had kept on driving instead of turning the corner to go home at lunch time today, maybe I could have driven right out from under those clouds. Kids and teachers are praying for snow Thursday. There is power in prayer. Maybe I need to buy some milk and bread......

Day Three Hundred Thirty Four 2011

Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine. ~Anthony J. D'Angelo, The College Blue Book

Day Two Hundred Eighty Three 2011

Day Thirty One 2011

Monday sky in shades of gray taken in the Solaris color setting with my cell phone camera. A good day to be inside, doing laundry. Now the rain has come. Can the snow be far behind?
