Wednesday morning, we had a red sunrise. I got pictures!
The solar panels are just waiting to soak that up! (Photo: Mark A. Zeiger).

I played around a little with catching the reflection of the mountains in one of the front windows. The double pane doubles the reflection slightly, but I still like it!
The old saying holds true: “Red sky at morning, sailors take warning.” But, that day we only got overcast and a little windy. Nothing to worry about!
My life seems bound by dribs and drabs lately. Much of what occupies me at the moment centers around the flow of liquids, many of which trickle when I wish they would flow.
After our success with birch wine last year, I anticipated using all the available sap this spring to make a whole lot more. In previous years, we’ve had so much sap we gave bottles of it away to neighbors (see “Moonshine”). I expected the same this year, and geared up for a lot of wine and juice making (we like to reconstitute fruit juice in birch sap instead of water for a spring tonic).
