Charles E. Burchfield, Journals, April 25, 1916

     A clearing up day – a warm fog-misty morning – horizon turns white – grass bristles suddenly with whitish rain dew; the clouds bleak in loose masses – at noon the sun comes forth – the birds all go wild – rich lt blue horizon trees middle black olive & blue grey trunks blue haze – Subdued golden sunlight at late afternoon –
