Clouds...

I took this pic one gorgeous sunny day in late summer. It was the only cloud in a clear blue sky.

On another day, I was in the backyard with my grandchildren. The afternoon started off being warm and sunny. Then a bank of clouds appeared, turning the air chilly and the sky gray.

"Go away Clouds!" I yelled up to the sky.



What??


"But Grandma, I like clouds!!"


Oops.

Clouds are neat. But lately they haven't been in blue sky's here.

Coffee is on.

I love clear, blue skies, but I also love clouds. Fortunately in Florida, we have blue skies almost every day so the clouds are also welcome.

A couple of sweeties you have there in your back yard!

Didn't I just read on another blog page of yours that you were going to get another camera ...???...Why?? These photos are absolutely fantastic.
I love the cloud...little puffy smile from the sky...and the photographs of your grands are just that: grand.
I was at Maggie May's site and saw your name and clicked over here...and am so happy I did.
Your flowers below this post are gorgeous, too. Splendid blog!

Oh Wendy, that cracked me up! Hee!Hee! Your grands look so sweet. Loudon and I stretched out on the lawn today and watched the clouds and the breeze in the trees. It was a perfect day for doing nothing but enjoying being outside after the horrible summer we had. I imagine you feel the same way about the winter coming up. So I can understand your dismay at seeing that bank of clouds.

Hugs!

I love clouds too! Especially wispy trailing ones on a clear blue sky! Loved your pics! Your grandchildren are beautiful!

I am with you. We need some sun shine.
I am sending happy birthday hugs. And sun shine wishes to you.
Big hug.

What cuties! I hope the clouds didn't spoil such a beautiful day playing with the grandchildren. I'm with you, though, Wendy, I have had enough of clouds lately. Wait a minute--what is that strange bright glow coming through my window? Omigosh, the sun is shining today! Hope you have a Happy Halloween and skies are clear for all the trick-or-treaters tonight!

I really love the header you have on this site. I like how it changes (with the seasons?!!).

I had fun watching clouds a couple weeks ago, and something I said stuck in my boyfriend's head. He reminded me of it last week before he left the country.

Such fun imagining that clouds take on different shapes, like objects floating in the sky!

Such sweet, sweet faces. How could the clouds resist peeking down at them? :)
