Drops of Jupiter

Nothing but morning dew and fog. Well, we didn't get to see the Moon Eclipse Jupiter. All that could be seen at 4AM - 5AM was clouds and fog. A mere glow where the moon should be shining. :o(

Now the Moon has continued it's trek across the heavens. This is where it is now:

Anyway, I didn't wake up my son, and let him rest. To my surprise, he wasn't as upset as I expected he might be - he said he had the best sleep ever. :o)

It was good to be up, just contemplating, all by myself.

Last night, I went hunting for our lat and long. Here's a shot of where we live (taken in 2002, via TerraServer-USA). So our house wasn't built yet, but you get to see the lay of the land, and how close the school is from our home. "Home" marks our spot. *grin*

It's a lot nicer now, greener, no too busy, with nice neighbors and that nice great spot in the back, trees filled with birdsong, butterflies and bees. There's even horses! Ducks to feed, kids to enjoy playing, sun, moon and wind. There's the perfect morning spot for tea, watching the wind leave it's path as it ripples over the pond.

If I'd live any other place I think it would be in the country, with a farm, lots of flowers, herbs and animals, close to water in any form.

Awwwww ... too bad you missed the eclipse. I know what you mean about having early morning contemplation time, though. I almost hate it when it's finally, necessarily, disturbed.

I LOVE the graphic on your back ground. The one in the lower right hand corner. Interesting blog.

I'm with you on living out in the country. City life is fine if you take part of the city. But I pretty much stay at home and I think being home in the country would be so much better.
