Happy.

The sky is blue(*), I ache from head to toe, and I am happy. Cheerful. Ebullient. This is a strange feeling for me, and I love it.

It's even cooler...( cut for maybe TMI )

outdoors, hiking

My fFavorite is the part where it's BRIGHT daylight, but no sun. Everything is fFully illuminated, but nothing has a shadow. Rochester local George Eastman noted his one-shot cameras needed a setting to take pictures under these circumstances of heavy overcast with bright sunshine. So, fFor may years, Kodak Cameras had a setting called "Cloudybright." The Eastman house museum has many such cameras on display.

My dad, a Georgia native (who didn't know exactly what the context was either), used to tell me of cameras that came with the Cloudybright setting long before I ever moved here. I thought "huh, what a fFunny sort of idea. cloudybright? what does that mean?" Then I moved here and it all made sense.

Hai. It's a neat story - and, for all I grew up here, I didn't know about cloudybright

I love days in autumn when it's overcast and all the colours are so much brighter for the slight grey filter.

I realized the other day that there has come a time when I would gladly part with some of my blissful daystar hours in return for some honest-to-goodness fall weather. With foliage.

*sigh* I misses it, I does...

The leaves and the pumpkins and the cider miss you, too, Lizm'love.
