There is Nothing Quite Like.....

.....Having a couple of BIG Pelicans more or less flying straight at you.

It was close ......and such an awesome feeling...I was tracking them with my viewfinder when they wheeled around to face me and then flew up the river.

The weather has been rather miserable today and I completely got the wrong day for an appointment (it's tomorrow...I guess that's to be expected the older I get)...the good thing about it was.

I got up earlier.....and I used the time to take pics of landscapes and Pelicans instead.

Whatever happens to you, don't fall in despair.
Even if all the doors are closed, a secret path will be there for you that no one knows.
You can't see it yet but so many paradises are at the end of this path.
Be grateful! It is easy to thank after obtaining what you want, thank before having what you want.
