A Country Bumpkin’s Sunny Day

Holding on to Childhood

nobody@vox.com(countrybumpkin) — Mon, 19 Jan 2009 06:51:37 -0800

I just love this photo. It captures childhood with the struggle to want to grow up and paint your nails, wear fancy dresses and necklaces. I thought the colors well suited for the photo. The dirty nails and the gently cupped hands remind me how...

Florida's Sunshine

nobody@vox.com(countrybumpkin) — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 06:05:52 -0700

These were taken around Easter, 2008 in North Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Only now getting around to uploading them. Truthfully, while it is hard to complain about being at the beach, I really prefer the Gulf side of Florida. The beaches are muc...

So much for the sunrise....

So much for catching photos of the sunrise. The sun has moved so far to the left that it is coming up behind the trees. Occasionally, I am catching some cool sky colors tho. I have a few sunrise pix stored on my mem card but I am thinking I may...

Sunrise in Trees

nobody@vox.com(countrybumpkin) — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 12:39:12 -0700

March 16, 2008. Not the best sunrise I have ever seen. It seems the Earth has tilted all at once making the sun's morning appearance happen behind the trees. Definitely better in person but nonetheless, it started out as a sun filled day!

Taken in our backyard March 11. We've changed the clocks, you know Spring forward! The sunset is one hour later than it was. Just when we were getting used to waking up with daylight, we are again up in the darkness. No stars to be seen as the...

Feb miscellany

nobody@vox.com(countrybumpkin) — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 05:29:02 -0800

The sun is beginning to rise later each day. The kids would leave for school at dawn and I would grab the camera to catch the morning delight in peace and quiet. With all of the last minute hustle to get out of the door on time, the sun is be...

Sunrises in January

nobody@vox.com(countrybumpkin) — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 15:22:38 -0800

January sunrises in my backyard. Cold weather but hot sun. Sunrises are now happening earlier each day meaning that winter is passing and spring is teasing me.
