An October Evening

Today was one of those days I could hardly wait to leave work. My problem is not that I don't like my job. In fact, I love what I do. My problem is that my room has no windows. I ache to see the outdoors, to view the weather, to catch even a glimpse of the sun. I find it especially hard on perfect October days. Oh, I want, need to be outside!

Well, I was rewarded. I got home and ran outside with my camera. I went for a walk, watered the tree I planted yesterday, and before I new it - dusk surrounded me.

I was between an October moon rise on my left



and an amazing sunset on my right.


Instantly, all was right with the world. Life is good!

Do we have like minds? Wanderlust at 11am in an office with no windows? It's a way of life, I guess.

Glad you found a glorious sunset!

Okay, this is eerie, Kathleen. You HAVE to read my post from this very same day/night. Notice the "all's right with the world" part, too. *cue Twilight Zone music*

Kylee, your walk was magical. "And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see...."

Mary,
To say that we are of like-minds is a compliment I will gladly accept. Now, can you toss some of your photography skills my direction!
