Hello everyone. I hope you all had a lovely weekend. I had a slow and quiet weekend. I did get out Sunday evening for a stroll. I needed it to just take a slow walk. I enjoyed the little path that I went to up the road from me.
The walking path was filled all along it. Bushes and bushes. They will probably be ripe next week.
I remember one time my husband and I went and picked a bunch of berries close to my mother in law's home, and she made berry dumplings with them. IT WAS DELISH! I am not sure of the recipe because a lot of things she did was from her on concoctions. Carolyn was a wonderful cook. She made the best fried okra I have ever tasted. I also never had rice pudding until she made it one evening and it was superb. I love it to this day. But really, I have never tasted it like the way she made it.
As I was leaving I noticed this beautiful sunset. It was like a watercolor painting. So, I did what any sunset chasing crazy lady would do.... I rolled my windows down and drove towards the sunset to capture all I could.
I pulled over in a safe parking lot and took these next pictures. I just thought it was magnificent. There are no filters on any of these pictures. This is just a basic photo off an old cellphone. :)
Slowly and slowly, it sets! It was such a lovely evening. Psalm 19:1 " “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork.”
I have not caught many sunrises in my life, but I always catch sunsets. I love them. Some of my most memorable ones are on a vacation to Petit Jean Mountain in Arkansas. Oh, I will have to find that picture and share it. It was marvelous.
The second one was St. Mark's Nature Preserve in Floridia this past September. It was breathtaking.
The third one was on Dania Beach, Floridia.
I am sure there are more, but these are the most memorable.
Are you a sunrise, sunset or beautiful sky chaser? In other words, do the skies and all the glory of them stop you in your tracks?
Until Next Time.... go watch a sunrise or sunset!

I so love sunrises and sunsets. When I was working, I would often see sunrises as I drove in and it was such a perfect way to start the day. I love sunsets too, and the best ones are when we are by Lake Mich. We have lots of trees around our house so we can't see them from home.
Your description of the earth sighing and getting ready for sleep just warmed my heart. I will always think of that now when I see one.
I'm glad you got to get out and enjoy a walk and see this sunset too. It's good for you!
PS- I told you I ordered that prayer book after you talked about it. I really liked it. I'm going to order it for a few friends.
Oh, Mari, I am so glad you liked it. Hugs!!!!
Hi Chrissy, I absolutely love ❤️ sunsets 🌇
Beautiful series of captures. I also love to take long walks in nature, I find it therapeutic both for my physical and mental health.
I couldn't agree more!!! Nature just really lifts my soul!
