My Sweet Sister Sharon kissing Uncle Lloyd

In loving memory of dear Uncle Lloyd

who passed away on this date I believe 5 years ago

In the rising of the sun and in its going down, we remember them. In the glowing of the wind and in the chill of winter. In the opening of buds and in the rebirth of spring. In the blueness of the sky and in the warmth of summer. IN the rustling of leaves and in the beauty of autumn, IN the beginning of the year and when it ends. When we are weary and in the need of strength. When we are lost and sick at heart. Whe we have joys we yearn to share. We remember them, As long as we live they too shall live for they are now a part of us as we remember them.

A salute with folded hands（作揖）is part of the traditional code of Chinese etiquette meant to express respect to others. The use of the gesture dates back to around 3,000 years ago.

To form the basic posture, clasp both hands with one hand over the other and raise them in front of your chest. One of the girls in the picture below did it wrong. Can you tell which one?

How cool is this? ....literally!
It's a phenomenon called an 'ice halo' - and this was captured by Joshua Thomas in Red River, NM the morning of January 9, 2015.
The National Weather Service featured it on their Facebook page.
The rings and arcs of an ice halo are formed by light interacting with ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere during the cold weather.
