This is from 2006 - a sunset across a north Florida lake.
The colors were spectacular and I liked the reflections of the plants and the bird.




Enjoy!

Poem: Tomorrow ( a repeat posting )



Tomorrow


Tomorrow brings a brighter day.
I’ll make it so!
I’ll put the pain - the hurt - away.
No one will ever know.

I’ll hide the tears,
and in their place will be a smile.
No one will guess my heart is breaking,
all the while.

And if I do this long enough
from day to day,
in time, the pain I’m feeling now
might, truly, go away!

…So, if wayward tears should fall,
please just pretend
you never saw the teardrops.
Please, be a friend.

I’ll toast tomorrow,
with my glass held high!
With new resolve,
I’ll give it my best try!

It's time again for Sky Watch Friday
!





Go here for more skies around the world.

~A few sky shots from my place in north Florida~












































The first 2 pictures are recent.

The last one is from another year.

I always liked this picture, taken just after sunset.

Someone remarked once to me that these clouds look like 'Long Island!' :) They, sort of, do!
What do you think?

On our way home from Orlando to Ocala last weekend we timed it just right to catch this glorious sunset over lake Eustis.

Sky Watch Friday ~ 8~29~08

It's Sky Watch Friday! (well-almost!)





I love the pastel colors of the sky at sunset and just after sunset! Even if you do not have a good view to the west where the sun goes down, you still get color extending in other directions!
(Of course, all you 'watchers of the skies' know that! )

I just find that very neat!
:)

This was the pastel sky one evening in Alabama - looking north. (July,2008)

Sky Watch Friday ~ 8~14~ 08




Time for SWF again!

( for more Sky Watch Friday pics, go here! )

I have lots of sky pictures because I am always 'looking up' when we go out riding! :) And, of course, I 'm never without my camera on these rides!












This is a sunset over Orange Lake in North - Central Fl.

This was a couple years ago on one of our long motorcycle rides around our little world!

Our trip continued... #5 (Pics for the family)



My brother and Sister-in-law have a pretty place in Priceville, and they have 2 of their sons and their families close by; kids, grands and great grands! There's always someone of the family stopping by to visit with them a little! I was glad to have been able to see all the local family there!






















Some pics of my brother's folks in Priceville:





































































My sister-in-law proudly showed me this poem that the little girl above wrote as a school assignment-about grandparents:

AS follows~~~
(I tried to scan it but my scanner isn't working so I'll just have to type it!)


What Makes a Grandparent

What makes a grandparent? It's easy to tell.
But it's not glasses or a cookie smell.
It's not a garden or silvery hair.
It's not fishing poles or a rocking chair.
What makes a grandparent?
You probably know.
Loving a grandchild is what makes one so.



~~~

I like it! :)


We were there 4 nights, but spent 2 of the days in Athens, attending the family reunions there. We meet on Friday evening and again about noon time on Saturday.

Charles and I like to ride out in the country and see some of the old places of his youth. This year, as in years passed, we again did that. This time, though, we didn't spend as much time as we usually do! :( I DID get a few pics of barns, though...barns that my husband knew when he was a kid growing up there! I love that some are still standing, after all these years.

I'll have to continue tomorrow with my country scenes and the family reunion in Athens! :)
