But today was a delight! Such a wonderful lazy day. We did go for a hike in the mountains, where of course, I constantly looked up. (Tripped a few times, but did so much better!) The clouds were white and billowy with a very blue sky. And here I've painted a purple sunset, for now is the time to wind down. Sadly all good things come to an end.
