Evening, Wisdom and Beauty!!

In seed time learn, in harvest teach, in winter enjoy.  William Blake

Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home.
Edith Sitwell

One kind word can warm three winter months.   Japanese Proverb

    Ah--love that Japanese Proverb. Winter can be COLD --and we can use all of the 'warmth' we can get. Speaking of warmth, it's getting warmer here this week... Love to feel that sunshine!!!!

    Great photos.

    It's a good thing I don't have to photograph the sky. I would have shown nothing but total white in grey for the past 3 weeks! These are lovely as usual!
