A Fiery Torch

The contrast today, from yesterday morning, was extreme. Today bright sunshine, clear blue skies. Yesterday, an enveloping mist restricting vision in every direction.

It was exhilerating today as I went up Launching Place Rd. The sun, rising over the northeast hills, shone brilliantly on a liquid amber tree in Kevin and Denise Burns' garden. The tree, amazingly still holding it's leaves and 'autumn' colour, lit up in a blaze of gold and orange through to bright purple in a spectacular natural performance, reminding me what wonderful solar receptors trees are.

The little piece of Earth I call home is rejoicing in the rain of the last few days.
