As usual, I was racing to my car, so I could get in the line up on the expressway for the journey to work. But this sky was so glorious, I had to stop and gaze and moment and capture it with my phone. And then it was off to the races.
Someone cut this tree stump into the shape of a chair. How about that? It was another glorious sky last Saturday morning and I noticed the stump chair when my friends and I were saying goodbye after a walk in the park.
My favorite cookies from Ryal's Bakery in my hometown of Milledgeville, Georgia. A hometown friend, Chuck, posted this pic on Facebook and it made me smile. :) He also posted a quote from author Agatha Christie this morning that resonated with me:
"I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow; but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing."

Lovely sky! I like the stump chair too and the cookies are nicely bright and cheerful looking!
Beautiful photograph. Love the stump chair and wish I had done that with the tree stump here. Maybe I still can. Cookies make me hungry. I'm off to the kitchen.
Hi Lynn - aren't they fun photos - gorgeous morning one .. then the chair and then those buns, as I'd call them - not sure about the yellow! ... Happy weekend - Hilary

There was more to Agatha Christie than met the eye.
"just to be alive is a grand thing."
Yes, it is.

(love that sky, too.) :-O
We had a tree stump at my mother's house that was fairly chair like. Then too much brush grew near it to make it useful
Oh what a sky. I would happily sit in (on?) that stump chair.
And wish that everyone could look at life as Agatha did. Sadly for many it is a huge ask.
Thankfully, today as been here...a welcome break from the heat we've been experiencing. We had a storm last night; and more rain during the day with a few bursts of thunder.
The heat has been so draining.
Ooo pink ripples, I love that! Making stump chairs sounds like fun . cute cookies n great quote!
Looks like a cool place to sit and partake of those yummy cookies. :D
Three great photos! Love that beautiful sky, the tree stump seat is clever and the cookies look delicious! Thank you for leaving a sweet comment on my blog. Happy week to you :)
Oh we are kindred spirits! I'm so glad you stop to admire the glorious skies, too : )
It's always a good thing to stop and look around because beauty is definitely all around as you have shown, Lynn. The stump chair is creative but doesn't look too comfy. The cookies however look delicious.
What a lovely sky. And those cookie are charming!
