Sky Watch!!

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 led of Yogi, Sandy and Sylvia. 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!  http://skyley.blogspot.com/
 We had a sunny day this week -- ONE!! But it has been a mild, if gray, winter so far so I really can't complain other than I miss our colorful skies and glorious sunrises and sunsets -- all the more reason to take lots of photos when they are there!!! Here's some from earlier!!
We either make ourselves happy or miserable. The amount of work is the
same.   Carlos Castaneda

The pleasantest things in the world are pleasant thoughts: and the great art of life is to have as many of them as possible. Montaigne

To get up each morning with the resolve to be happy is to set our own conditions to the events of each day. To do this is to condition circumstances instead of being conditioned by them.  Ralph Waldo Emerson

    Well at least you get to see the sun! We've had blue sky all week when I can't take pics and the forecast isn't too blue for the weekend when I can take pics, lol!

    Are you, with these beautiful pictures and pithy sayings, telling me that I should not allow my happiness to be determined by things and people other than myself? Is that what you're saying? :-)

    Right. But it's hard to sometimes 'cause sometimes the conditions in which we find ourselves do not lend themselves to any kind of happiness.

    Here's ends the lecture.

    Have a wonderful afternoon and evening and go into Friday with high hopes.

    What a panorama of glorious colors in these photos. You need the gray, rainy days in order to fully appreciate the beauty of skies such as these.

    Hope that you have a wonderful weekend with a bit of blue sky.

    I see we are sharing gray skies but you seem to have more glorious sunsets. I seem to miss them so I miss the summer I stayed right on the coast with a view of the ocean. Spectacular photos that summer, lol. Have a great weekend.

    Thanks for sharing these glorious golden sunsets, Sylvia.
    Overhere it's cold and grey, and we're expecting some new snow, but spring is coming closer each day.
    I hope you have a great weekend.
