Super Blue Blood Moon Eclipse 2018

Posted on February 2, 2018 by rainydayreflections • 2 Comments

The lunar eclipse on January 31, 2018 was the first to coincide with a Blue Moon – a second full moon in one month – in North America in over 150 years. Why does the moon turn red? The Moon does not have any light of its own—it shines because its surface reflects sunlight. During … Continue reading →

Invisible

Posted on September 8, 2017 by rainydayreflections • 2 Comments

These words have been floating around in my head for a few months.  To be truthful, I’m not sure where the words came from because though I’ve felt this way in the past — I don’t now. I decided to share this poem even though it feels rather personal.  I’m sharing because life throws some … Continue reading →

Fireworks

Posted on July 11, 2017 by rainydayreflections • 2 Comments

Fireworks have always amazed me.  I love the magic of the bursting colors in the sky and the booming sounds that follow.  The display seems even better when the fireworks are over a lake or in an echoing canyon.  This Fourth of July,  we were happy to watch from the edge of a boat dock … Continue reading →

We were driving down Texas Highway 377 and lucked upon a Saturday celebration in Collinsville, Texas.  There was live music, food vendors, merchandise booths and a car show. With roots dating back to the 1850s, Collinsville is a true small Texas town. They have a population of 1650, one high school and lots of Texas pride. … Continue reading →

2016 – Finding Joy Everyday

Finding Joy Everyday was … Continue reading →

Ornaments – A Family Christmas Tradition

Posted on December 6, 2016 by rainydayreflections • 2 Comments

Buying or making a new ornament for the Christmas tree every year is one of my favorite family traditions.  The tradition started the year we got married when one of my close friends gave us an ornament for our tree.  It was just a little wooden ornament attached to a present; but it represented our new … Continue reading →

Happy November! I found this quote today and thought it was a good one for the 1st day of November.  I don’t know about you; but I find myself so busy during the holiday season that I forget to stop and enjoy it.  I’m going to print this and put it on the wall in … Continue reading →
