Sky Watch Friday!

Time to share your skies, the beauty over your world, the clouds, the colors! Sky Watch is hosted each week by  the Sky Watch team of  Sandy and I. And this week as every week, we remember Klaus and know that he joins us in spirit! Join us and the many people from all over the world who share theirs with us each week!

    Beautiful photos, lovely skies, Sylvia. Enjoy the weekend ahead!
    Sorry to hear that the May Day demonstrations in Seattle were violent and unruly. I guess there are many more disaffected and desperate people in the USA now and that was their way of reacting against what they see as social injustice. However violence never did anybody any good...
