Clouds and Thoughts

Clouds are such interesting things. They are constantly changing, rearraging themselves as they glide along. As a child I used to lay in the grass grazing up in the sky to find animal and other shapes in their fluffy formations. 

As an adult I am still very aware of the different nuances of clouds. Hence, the reason why on Sunday as we were polishing Mia to a nice shiny finish after her bath, I noticed the reflection of the cloud deck in Mia's hood. Did you figure it out before I told you?

One evening last week as we were ready to get into the pool to do our laps, I noticed the clouds fanning out in rows. I had never seen this particular formation before. At least not that I can remember anyway.

The first photo almost looks like you took the pic out an airplane window!  Nope, didn’t get it until you said so.  No wonder they look pink!  grin

I did recognize the car reflection, probably because I’m so used to seeing so many car-reflection photos from Reya! I love reflections and shiny surfaces. They’re a never-ending source of great photo opportunities.

Apparently when I was a little kid I read a book about clouds, and ran around telling everyone about cumulo-nimbus and cirrus cloud formations. There was an old man at church who got such a kick out of this that he talked about it for YEARS. By the time I was a teenager it was kind of embarrassing!

C, haha!

Steve, I figured you would get it. I loved the story about you!
