The home I'm at now is my childhood home. Used to be farmland on a dirt road when I was born. Thankful it's a golf course and a Walmart. I'm tired of all of the political agendas to. Too much noise

645. No one but us. In my white cotton knee length nightgown . Cool

Crisp air awaiting too much heat . I embrace the still . Houses darkened. Slice of moon. My lab Alvin and I . Another long day …

Beautiful!!! The slice of moon 🌙 too. The moment of quiet before the world wakes up

It’s the quiet . Too much noise. My childhood home was a chaotic. I’ve tried to put politics and Trump aside. It’s getting tooooo close for a safe harbour

Beautiful! Early mornings are the best. 🌅 And yes, I find my parents in those sunrises also. 💞

Awww! Dogs know how to live in the moment and they teach us to also. My pets and teen have me up every day at 530
