While driving down an East Texas country road I spotted this scene. The autumn trees and the late afternoon sun made these golden bales of hay shine just a little bit more. Fortunately I had my camera with me. (c) James Q. Eddy Jr.

Israel’s airstrikes continue on Gaza, killing at least 50 more people on Thursday, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry.

More than 14-hundred people have been killed in the enclave since Israel’s military began responding to Hamas militants’ attack on Israel over the weekend.

The United Nation says half a million Gazans are without food rations. On Wednesday, electricity was cut off.

Across Gaza’s other border is Egypt. But on Wednesday, Egypt rejected the idea of setting up safe corridors for refugees, according to Reuters.
