A magical moment

Yesterday, it was cloudy and rainy all day, and a bit chilly for May. The rain isn't all that worrisome. May is historically our rainy season. 

But then, about eight o'clock last evening, the sunlight found its way beneath the clouds and the manor simply glowed! The pictures do not do the moment justice. 

I was in my sunroom, which doubles as my office, and it was magical. There are some things a camera can't truly capture and this was one of those moments. Yes, you can see the streams of sunlight and how green the woods are in spring, but the glow is something you feel as much as see. 

And it was so quiet! Nothing stirred in the woods. No deer, no birds, no squirrels. For about five magical moments, the world was still. It was amazing.
