Sunrise Today

April 08, 2013

The golden moments in the stream of life rush past us and
we see nothing but sand; the angels come to visit us, and
we only know them when they are gone.  ~George Elliot

When I got up this morning the morning sky was all cloudy and dark for the most part and just before I was about to leave for work I looked out back and saw this bright orange/yellow sky. I just had to get a picture of it… I was thinking how I could possibly use it in a slideshow at some point.

When I got to work I read where Margaret Thatcher had passed away. Mrs. Thatcher was a strong lady and I feel she was a good leader. I’ll always remember how she stood with President Ronald Reagan.


When I got home this afternoon I learned that Annette Funicello passed away also today. Annette was an original Mouseketeer. I like what she said :

She remembered in 1987: "Mr. Disney said to me one day, 'Annette, I have a favor to ask of you. I know all the girls are wearing bikinis, but you have an image to uphold. I would appreciate it if you would wear a one-piece suit.' I did, and I never regretted it."


Now I know why the sunrise was so nice… Heaven was opening its gates for two great ladies.
