What brings tears of joy to your eyes?

Tonight at 6:45pm I heard a thunderous roar approaching the house ... could it be?  YES. The Canadian Snowbirds were flying in diamond formation over our country home. Today, the "Snowbirds" were performing over the water in Sarnia, ON.   As I heard the 'loud roar', I ran outside in time to see the Canadian Snowbirds, in a clear blue sky, flying in perfect diamond formation ... joyous tears immediately filled my eyes.  I jumped and waved from the back deck of our home, even though they would never see me.  What a rush, what a thrill - one of those 'little things' that brings joy, if even for 5 seconds.

The photo is the Snowbirds making their entrance for the Sarnia show over Canatera Beach, Lake Huron.  They started the show in the same diamond formation they were in as they flew over our place.
