Sunshine Morning in Asheville



We are all in our places with sunshining faces. I heard my father sing this many times - it was the song he had sung every morning as a boy in school. It started his day with joy and happiness. These buildings are singing the same song - Jackson, Vance, Pack, BB&T, I.M. Pei sailing with joy into the morning.

Blue Jackson


One early morning, my favorite time of day, I watched the sun rise from pitch blackness at my house in Montford, to the street lights in the darkness at the Vance Monument to the changing blue sky behind the Jackson Building. It is amazing how many shades of blue there are, some actually a bit disturbing, a bit messy. Sitting with that feeling and color reaches deep into our minds, the air stirs with morning approaching  and then the blue changes - to a blue like this one behind the sky, full of smoothness, a sense of aliveness, and a promise of bright joy to come.
 
But then I don't know, are the gargoyles friend or foe?
