A sliver of a moon is hanging above the eastern horizon even as the sun is beautifully beginning to make its appearance.

I love the moon.

I always want to see it in its fullest phase and very bright. Right now its slivered image faces down toward the horizon which seems to be extra full of color and brightness this morning. The moon will probably disappear in less than an hour from now. The horizon is an orangish gold. The colors are more blended than on other days.

Last night we had our first official frost. The weatherman thoroughly warned us. This is typical for Oklahoma. I made sure I had an extra blanket on my bed. This morning I enjoyed just looking out my window so study the sparkle on the grass. I like to see how sparkly it gets after a frost. The more laden with frost, the more sparkles.
