A pretty morning - Skywatch Friday


I know I have posted before on one of my favorite things--sunrise. Took Kippy for a walk this morning and from 7 until 7:05 a.m. the sky was magnificent. "Red sky in the morning, sailor take warning. Red sky at night, sailor's delight."

We do have rain predicted today, it is still cold and possibly frost tonight, and then it will start getting nice. A lot of damage in the vegetation down here. They say 30% of the tropical fish raised here have died. No accounting yet on the citrus and strawberries. Just part of nature. I think it is good that man can't control everything. Something about evening things out and remembering who really is in control. Have a good day.

  1. Susan, what an incredible photograph of that spectacular pre-dawn sunrise. May the old saying be wrong and the weather to come, only bring you warm sunny Florida weather.

  2. So sorry for the farmers.

    Say Susan, since you like to photograph skies, you might want to join SkyWatch Friday. I participate from my San Pedro Daily Photo blog. It's fun!

  9. Opened the Wall Street Journal a day or so ago and thought of you. The headline read: Baby, It's Cold Outside. We thought of it first!!!

    And yes, my grandmother's parents were from Germany, although we never knew whose recipe the spaghetti casserole was. My sister thinks my mother made it up.

    Anyway: It was a lovely day yesterday and this cold should be over by Thursday, I hear. Bundle up, Susan!
