Spring Sky
As you all know, spring has been late in arriving this year. Some of the storms & changes in the weather have provided some pretty clouds & sunsets though.
Here are a few from this past weekend. Notice the trees are still bare of leaves. Usually by this time each year, the lilac bushes are all in full bloom. They do have buds on them, but no blooms as of yet.
The trees are just starting to put buds on them.
I do like the bare trees against the pretty sunset though...As a child, I use to love to look at the clouds and find "things" in them...(I still do!)
I remember laying on the slide in our backyard looking up at the sky & dreaming & seeing what I could find in the clouds.
These were some pretty impressive clouds either before or after a storm that we had.Today started off rainy & very windy. The sun has finally come out late afternoon, but it is still very windy. I have had a lazy day inside.
I did do a lot of work yesterday both inside & out. I love that feeling you get after doing hard physical work outside, then sitting out on the deck afterwards after a nice shower & relaxing with a yummy cocktail .
Last nights cocktail of choice was a Mojito.
Tonight will need to be Margaritas in celebration of Cinco de Mayo...along with some tacos

I love the sky pics. I used to do that as a child, too. Still do sometimes. : ) Enjoy your margarita!
The sky pictures are beautiful. I did the same thing as a child.. Once in awhile I still like to look up and find things in the clouds... I forgot all about Cinco de Mayo today. Hope you enjoyed that margarita. That is one of my favorite drinks.
Beautiful pics, love the bare tree silhouettes with the sunset!
I can't blame you for admiring such beauty. I love looking at sunsets myself. The tree silhouettes are a splendid foreground for those clouds. I too remember finding shapes in the clouds as a kid. The kid in me still does from time to time as well.
oh, i am diggin on these sunsets through the trees!! i almost like winter better because i can really see what each tree is made of ... i find beauty in their skeletons! i still discover things in the clouds ... look for them every day!!
Oh My, This is Amazing!
Wow look how green the yard is!!!!
Love the clouds in that last picy....I did that too when i was kid....ok i admit it...I still find things in the clouds ;o)
Picy 5...I just love how the sun is peeking through the tree.
Ya know the good thing about your summer?
You can sit out on your deck and not melt lol
I on the other hand need to be wet from the pool to sit out hahaha
I was looking at your book...I must be behind the times because she is one of my fav authors and i didn't even realize she had this book!
