From last fall. Sunrise and a sunset. These were taken at home.

From last fall. Sunrise and a sunset. These were taken at home.

Some thoughts I found...because of your sunrise, Ranch Roper.
These penned words are most clearly seen in your photo from last fall.
Thanks for sharing the beauty of that sunrise...


Emily Dickinson - The Sunrise runs for Both –

The Sunrise runs for Both --
The East -- Her Purple Troth
Keeps with the Hill --
The Noon unwinds Her Blue
Till One Breadth cover Two --
Remotest -- still --

Nor does the Night forget
A Lamp for Each -- to set --
Wicks wide away --
The North -- Her blazing Sign
Erects in Iodine --
Till Both -- can see --

The Midnight's Dusky Arms
Clasp Hemispheres, and Homes
And so
Upon Her Bosom -- One --
And One upon Her Hem --
Both lie --

Very nice words. Suits it well.

Yes the sun comes up each morning so no reason not to post.

[RanchRoper]

a bit too early for the sunrise, and I just missed the sunset....

I have a friend who once (and often) said, "It's always darkest just before it goes completely black". Great photos. Thanks.

The finest hour that I have seen
Is the one that comes between
The edge of night and the break of day
Its when the darkness rolls away

Thanks for the video, the singer, the song, and the sentiment. Loved it.

Nice colors, Dave.

[Sir Henry]

Dave, it almost looks like it was taken around here.

One of my favorite songs, from Jon and Vangelis "A Private Collection".

You may recognize Jon Anderson of Yes.

The sunset begins at about 0030.

Early morning near home today. Icy fog and snow this morning.

[RanchRoper]

A couple more.

That's the weather I most enjoy. Yes, many folk say I'm nuts!

Your photo of the front lawn heading toward the tree line looks exactly like one of the fields I crossed when I went deer hunting last December.
What a brisk hike that was!

Thanks for posting those "cool" photos.

Those are neat pictures RanchRoper. What is the name of the mountain?

[CT_Shooter]

Thanks for the great photos, RanchRoper. Yours is a truly great neighborhood! It's almost hard to imagine that there are still wide open places in the world that look like that!
