GOLDEN HOURS

                                TWO HOURS AFTER SUNRISE AND TWO HOURS BEFORE SUNSET ARE THE GOLDEN HOURS.  THAT'S TRUE IN PHOTOGRAPHY AND IN LIVING.  IT IS ESPECIALLY TRUE IN THE TROPICS OR SUMMERTIME UP NORTH WHEN THE SUN IS SCORCHING TO THE EYE OR SKIN OR MIND.  ALL THE OTHER HOURS OF THE DAY ARE THE MADE IN THE SHADE HOURS.  ONLY MAD DOGS AND ENGLISHMEN GO OUT IN THE NOON DAY SUN SAYS NOEL COWARD.
                                  "SO IN THE COOL COOL EVENING OF THE EVENING TELL THEM I'LL BE THERE," SANG DER BINGLE (AKA BING CROSBY).  "SUNRISE,SUNSET, QUICKLY GO THE DAYS," SINGS THE FATHER TEVIA IN FIDDLER ON THE ROOF JUST BEFORE HE WISHES HE WERE A RICH MAN. 
                                     DURING THESE GOLDEN HOURS I WATCHED WOMEN IN THEIR GOLDEN YEARS PUTT ON THE 6TH GREEN.  THEY WERE PLAYING BEST BALL.  NO ONE SUNK IT.  THEY ALL MAINTAINED THEIR COOL IN THE EARLY DAYLIGHT.  BEFORE THAT I WATCHED THE COURSE MAINTENANCE MOW THE GREEN AT SUNRISE.  USUALLY A COUPLE PLAY TOGETHER EARLY IN THE MORNING FIRST THING IN THE GOLDEN HOURS AS SOON AS THE COURSE OPENS.  THERE WERE NO BIRDIES ON THE GREEN OR ON THE COURSE.  IT WAS ALREADY TOO HOT AND NOISY FOR THE BIRDS.  THE OTHER DAY AN EAGLE AND TWO SAND HILL CRANES FLEW AWAY AS SOON A A LAWN MOWER STARTED.

I HATE TO SEE THAT EVENING SUN GO DOWN-

'CUZ THAT MAN OF MINE AIN'T AROUND

                                       SO IN THE SOUTH YOU ARE EITHER AN EARLY RISER OR A LOUNGE LIZARD AT NIGHT.   IN BETWEEN IT'S SIESTA TIME.  ALTHOUGH NOW A DAYS WITH AIR CONDITIONING,IT'S TV,COMPUTER OR READING TIME.  AH  FOR A MINT JULEP NOW AND AGAIN. 
                                   THERE ARE ONLY TWO HOT SPOTS IN THE USA RIGHT NOW FLORIDA AND ARIZONA.  IN LATE APRIL, THE REST OF THE USA IS STILL IN THE 60'S DURING THE DAY AND IF LUCKY MAYBE 70 DEGREES.   IN FLORIDA WE TURN ON OUR AC TO EXPERIENCE THAT TEMPERATURE. 
                                      GLOBAL WARMING MAY HEAT UP THE REST OF THE USA.  I HOPE NOT EXCEPT FOR THE PRICE OF OIL.  IT'S USUALLY TOO HOT DOWN SOUTH NOT TO COOL DOWN.
