I arrived at 5:06 am. It was still dark. Warm enough not to need a jacket. It seemed much quieter than usual. I sat in the silence with my journal on my lap and camera sitting next to me. A mule deer pasted in front me and not sure she was aware of my presence. If she was I was not a threat to her. A cottontail came up and sat down in front of me, eyes riveted to mine in the silence. Soon the sky began to turn a soft pink. These moments are a gift then quickly gone. So, we must be present to each of them. I pressed the shutter button three times then went back to my journaling. Will meet with a friend in about an hour for good conversation.
Testing has shown I have mold in my condo and will now need to deal with having that fixed before having the new vinyl flooring put in. It was scheduled for Aug 2nd. Hope there is no delay in that.
