| One beautiful sunrise please. |
This morning the weather was a delight. When the dog and I hit the street I could not resist taking a picture of the beautiful sunrise. The sky was blue, gold and red and shown like a painting hanging in the air above us making what might have been a chore a delight. We walked on down to the pig farm and on the way we saw one of the purple wild flowers of late summer blooming. It was Iron weed. Once again this is a flower that I have seen all my life and simply identified it as a weed.

| Iron weed. So that's what it is. |
I found its name at a good wild flower site called Southeastern Flora at
http://www.southeasternflora.com/view_flora.asp?plantid=458# . It is nice to learn the name that these things i have been passing by all my life are actually called by. We walked on down to the pig farm where it smells like the pigs have arrived to await the Gulf States Fair in a month or so. I could hear the animals making noises in the farm building so I am pretty sure they are here.

| Not as scary as it looks. |
As we made our way down the road to the farm I decided to photograph the entry road that the county has spent some time on repairing over the last couple of weeks. The sunrise made the dimly lit road seem very ominous this morning. Really though that stretch of road is where I like to go in the morning when I know I have a hard day ahead of me. It is very peaceful. Thanks for reading my blog today I hope you have a peaceful day. Bye.
