My other baby brother called me late in the day December 19th…it had been sprinkling some RAIN drops and there was an awesome rainbow. Well the sun was setting fast…by the time I made it out of the trees and down the road the rainbow was gone. However I did enjoy a beautiful sunset.
As you can see we have very little snow…but that will probably change in the next few days.
We have been getting many Christmas cards in the mail everyday…such fun to read! Some surprise packages have been delivered.
A battery operated candle in a beautiful holder. The glow is from the candle. It was such a thoughtful gift! It made me cry. Thank you Doug and Lisa! Lisa is a long time blog reader from Washington State…she and Far Guy share the dreaded Trigeminal Neuralgia.
Yesterday was the shortest day of the year…from now on we gain daylight! Sun rises at 8:03 AM and sets at 4:34 PM with a total of 8 hours and 31 minutes of daylight…less on dreary cloudy days.
Oh, Connie, what a sweet candle & I shed a few tears too.

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely thoughtful gift.
ReplyDeleteAren't we all just yearning for the longer days and Spring!
Lisa's gift to you is very touching. That sunset is glorious, and the sunset two days later brought an end to the diminishing of the light and the hope of brighter days to come.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely gift indeed, and what a beautiful sunset
ReplyDeleteWhat a thoughtful gift and a gorgeous sunset. I am very grateful that the days are getting longer. Our sunrise today was 7:35 and sunset is at 4:00. I’m so looking forward to longer days.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Betsy

ReplyDeleteThe remembrance of Chance is perfect. What a thoughtful gift.
A Chance candle holder! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteWhat a special gift! It would have made me cry too. It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOften, rainbows are fleeting things of beauty. Sometimes we can miss just enjoying that beauty in the mad rush of trying to capture it with the camera. Been there, done that.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet gift. It would have had me weeping.
Such a sweet and thoughtful gift. Your photo is spectacular.
