The letters of our thoughts are the ideas present in our mind before they come to realization . . . Thoughts that are, yet not felt . . . The words of the subconscious . . . of the soul . . .

These are the LETTERS OF MY THOUGHTS.

A Cowboy Chanukah



After a rocking good Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur in Colorado Spring, I've returned to the state of red rocks -Nil sine numine (Nothing without G-d's Will), as the state motto goes.

Enjoy the pictures from my arrival by clicking on the link.






When I left Crown Heights the winter storms had just struck the North East . . .



For some time I've been accustomed to not sleep the night before a morning flight . . . It just always works out that by the time I've packed and 'finished' my day, the new one is about to start -this trip was no different, save a brief nap on my couch (a very comfortable one at that -anyone who wants to crash at my place is more then welcome to use it), I ran on the energy (err pressure, whatever) of catching my flight. It works out better that way.
Before falling asleep on the plane I snapped this picture of the rising sun over a clouded New York.

After a two hour layover in Houston (where many of the gentiles approached the Rabbi with the mysterious black boxes on his head for information, and blessings) I arrived in Colorado Springs . . .

Enjoy the shots of the gorgeous sunset that  evening







. . . and the lighting of my menorah tonight (along with the other bochurim helping me)




More, G-d willing, to come!

I'm surprised it came out so well myself. The trick is to do it with out flash and to hold it at an angle where it won't reflect in the glass.
