Clear Blue Sky

Today was one of those rare perfect weather days in Alabama.......eighty degrees, and not a cloud in the sky.
The sky was so blue, there were moments I thought I might be in Sedona  or Telluride or maybe somewhere in Northern California.  Every time I looked at the sky, all I could do was say, wow!

It was one of those days when it just felt good to be alive.
I did nothing special......brought yoga mats home from work, and washed them, did laundry, just kicked back.
No gigs this weekend, and I missed that, but every once in awhile, you need to do nothing......just appreciate the blueness of the sky.

The dogs had a great day too, Blackie Bear looked  at me every once in awhile as if to say, gee thanks for the great weather, did you order this up just for me?  He is half chow and half lab, and all those hot summer days have made him miserable.

The photo is looking out our back door.  That is what I saw today, each time I walked out on the deck, it so reminded me of the skies in the old technicolor movies....but this was real, no enhancements.......just clear blue.

I earthed this morning,  I walked barefoot........there was heavy dew on the grass, and the red clay is still damp from all the rain earlier in the week......it felt great!  Connecting with the earth, it is so simple, so easy.
Why do we have to make life so complicated?  Walking barefoot on wet grass, with a blue sky above, a tinge of color starting to show in the leaves.........a good day.  I hope yours was good too.
Good night, Sweet dreams.

  3. I like the way you say you earthed. And why do we make things so complicated.

  4. That blue sky with the sun shining through the trees looks absolutely amazing. If only we had more days like that over here in England :(

  5. Walking barefoot is not something I can do I hate and I mean hate to walk anywhere without shoes on it is hard enough for me to go without shoes inside, outside is not something that happens......althoug I do love to sit in the sun and just look at the sky...
