“When scattered clouds are resting

Posted on January 1, 2015December 31, 2014 by maryoconnor12

on the bosoms of hills, it seems as if one might climb into the heavenly region, earth being so intermixed with sky, and gradually transformed into it.” — Nathaniel Hawthorne

It was very dark; but in the murky sky there were masses of cloud which shone with a lurid light, like monstrous heaps of copper that had been heated in a furnace, and were growing cold. — Charles Dickens

Best Wishes to All for a Happy, Healthy and Peaceful New Year!
