Pink Saturday_ Jan 28, 2012

~~~


Pink Saturday




One late afternoon this week,
just after sunset,
the sky turned the most gorgeous soft shades of pink!





It amazes me how the sun sets in the west
-with all the fiery glory-
and turns the eastern sky these luscious shades of pink!

 This is my favorite part of the day!

Thursday Theme Song! Mar 10, 2011 "To The Morning"


***







 "Watching the sun
Watching it come
Watching it come up over the rooftops."






(Complete lyrics to this beautiful song below)




( click on Youtube for more info on this vid)


To The Morning
Dan Fogelberg
 Watching the sun
Watching it come
Watching it come up over the rooftops.

Cloudy and warm

Maybe a storm
You can never quite tell
From the morning.

Chorus

And it's going to be a day
There is really no way to say no
To the morning.

Yes it's going to be a day

There is really nothing left to
Say but
Come on morning.

Waiting for mail

Maybe a tale
From an old friend
Or even a lover.

Sometimes there's none

But we have fun
Thinking of all who might
Have written.

And maybe there are seasons

And maybe they change
And maybe to love is not so strange.

The sounds of the day

They hurry away
Now they are gone until tomorrow.

When day will break

And you will wake
And you will rake your hands
Across your eyes
And realize

That it's going to be a day

There is really no way to say no
To the morning.

Yes it's going to be a day

There is really nothing left to say but
Come on morning.

Skywatch Friday-Sept 17, 2010- Perfect Central Florida Sky

~~


(see more skies at above link)

~~

Today we visited  some of our family in Orlando. It was a beautiful day  and we enjoyed our 2 hour ride from our home in  Ocala.

The sky was just the way I like it best...bluest of blue with an abundance of white puffy clouds.

We stopped by a lake on the way and I was able to get a few sky shots to share!

Enjoy!

This is a recent early morning sky at our place here in north Florida.






I have to say I've had my fill of this unusually frigid winter that has turned most everything brown here in my world!

I'm longing for the flowers of spring which will blanket that meadow beyond the wheels in a few weeks ~ and some blue, blue skies!

'Along the Road'

Joy at the start
Fear in the journey
Joy in the coming home
A part of the heart
Gets lost in the learning
Somewhere along the road

Sky Watch Friday~ (for-8 ~ 21 ~'09)

~~~




~~~

This was yesterday's sky in Orlando, Fl.

We went down there and helped
our granddaughter get moved into her dorm at UCF.



Some of the day was like this ~~~


~~~ but most of the day was like this!




Of course, I preferred the blue sky/white clouds parts of the day! :)
