Sky Watch!!

Welcome to this week’s Sky Watch and a great opportunity to see the beautiful skies from all over the world!!  Our skies in Portland and Seattle are always glorious, but even more so it seems in the Fall. Hope you enjoy and wishing you a beautiful weekend!!

There is some serious color going on in a couple of these images. Autumn is my favorite time of year because we often get our best sunrises and sunsets. Very nicely captured.

Las cuatro tomas son de una ejecución insuperable; aunque la naturaleza ha puesto mucho de su parte.
Un cordial saludo.

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
