    Stunning, and enjoy the brief spec of a person walking in the distance..from my side of the world I offer Emily Dickinson's words...To see the summer sky, Is poetry, though never in a book it lie- true poems flee.....

    Beautiful picture.
    Today is the longest day of the year here in Alabama. It was in the high 90's but then the long awaited rain came and gave our thirsty plants a drink.
