This morning I got stuck in traffic.

This was a good thing.

It allowed me to notice the steam rising off the wooden fences in the early morning sun. I took a picture but it did not fully capture the beauty, or the steam effect. The evaporating mists blew in amazing patterns as cars drove by.

I wound down my window and was surprised to feel the heat from the sun on my face, this late in October.

I contemplated the earth tilting on its axis and the leaves dropping from the trees.

Blue, green and orange go together so well.

I’m glad I got delayed today.

It was just what I needed.
