Today is the 11th anniversary of 9/11. But, rather than posting a tribute at my normal 11:11 a.m. Tuesday Time-Waster time, I’m giving you something beautiful.
Yes, today you get lovely clouds. In fact, you get a link to 60 amazing cloud photos.
I’ve always loved clouds, but really, who doesn’t like them? When I was a kid, I used to go on bike rides up and down hills, stopping at the top of a hill in time to watch the setting sun. I usually had a 360-degree view (depending on the particular hill), with the sun disappearing over the horizon to the west and Mt. Shasta to the east. The snow and glaciers on the 14,162-foot mountain would turn pink and orange, and there were usually clouds to add an exponential amount of color and beauty. I would write bad poems in an attempt to capture the beauty in words, then make a mad sprint for home before it was too dark to see the road.
Yes, today is the anniversary of 9/11. But it’s also my mom’s birthday. She’s the one who sent me the link to these clouds, so it’s only fitting to post it today. Happy birthday, Mom.
We do both love clouds.
I absolutely love this! Maybe mom’s artistic eye got passed on to us after all.
Thank you both for sharing!
