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!  We had clear and beautiful skies yesterday and I could see Mt. Rainier!! I'm sharing that with you today! Enjoy!

Fear makes strangers of people who would be friends.
Shirley MacLaine


There are people who can do all fine and heroic things but one - keep from telling their happiness to the unhappy.
Mark Twain

When a friend is in trouble, don't annoy him by asking if there is anything you can do. Think up something appropriate and do it.

    Your skies are so much prettier than mine these days Sylvia and what a spectacular view of Mr Rainier here and in the last post also, can you actually see it from your home? What an amazing sight to behold each day.

    Fine photos, Sylvia. You are lucky to have Mt Ranier as a beacon.

    That last comment is pretty astute. Not that I will remember to follow that advice next time I should, but that is my failing, not the author's.

    Hey Sylvia, I got in touch with kaimhanta and it turned out that we have plenty of people we know in common. Imagine being physically only 30 km apart but getting to know of each other only through a virtual world! The wonders of modern technology never cease to amaze me!

    Such beautiful skies and scenery Sylvia. It certainly pays to live on high. With Seattle seeing so much 'weather', you always have such interesting skies to offer.

    I hope you and Sam are getting out and about this weekend.
