So many shades of green! It’s a lovely image. If the hills were sentences, the trees would be punctuation marks.

Wow – beautiful! We’re golden out here even though it has been a cool summer … not much rain.

  We’ve not had much for quite a while, although we did get a bit of a deluge today. Turning wetter now…

It’s the simple things, like the way light falls, that we should all take the time to appreciate.
