The sun looks very different streaming through the hazy sky the past two mornings. As it's just beginning to rise above the trees the sun is orange. More interestingly, the light it sends through the trees is nearly red. It's a strange but beautiful effect. New England weather is always full of surprises.

Last night brought some much needed rain but it thankfully had stopped by the time Beyla and I headed out for our walk. Though that doesn't mean the trees are done raining. Both our heads got a little wet today, but it's ok. I've always loved the way the forest smells after it rains and it a welcome addition to our morning.

Tonight we're off to Maine. Hopefully I'll have something worth writing about from the island. :)
