Browsing the images on my phone a few days ago, I realized I had quite a few Delight images that I had not shared. Here’s the current installment of Open to Delight with just a few of the moments that have given me delight recently.
How have you been taking note of these moments in your life?

- The view out of my studio window last month.
- The same view several days later.
- I’d never thought about this word before. Love the play on words as well as the sentiment.
- Having not been in this house during the spring we are surprised daily by the trees and shrubs in our yard.
- Discovered a wonderful garden center full of all sorts of wonderful possibilities.
- I still am delighted by the morning light right outside our door most days.
- I know most people despise dandelions. But they are one of the sights that I love in Spring.
- This slope was fully carpeted with golden dandelions.
- I happened upon this dead log that had the most wonderful patterns.
- Traveling the back roads one afternoon, we stopped at a little shop and found this colorful scene.
- They even hung some in the trees outside the shop.
- At the same shop with the colorful glass – they clearly had a sense of whimsy evidenced by this colony of pink flamingo lawn ornaments.
- Some of the flamingos even made their way up in to the trees.
- On another exploratory trip to a new town, I spotted this bakery window full of baguettes. It reminded me of France.
- One of the things that fascinates us in this part of Virginia that we now call home, is the abundance of livestock herds. For some reason I just love seeing them. This is a small herd.
- Not sure why the cattle herds delight me so, perhaps it’s because I spent the first 3 years of my life on a dairy farm.
- And this one, from this morning. Notice the 5 calves over on the right.
- I never cease to be delighted by the mountains we drive through and around daily. This is a scene from just up the road from our house.
