Remember those clouds?

Remember the clouds I was talking about a couple of days ago? Well, yesterday's ride was complete with very similar clouds. So here's some pictures to make you see why your host was so happy about clouds.

I really do love these clouds. I mean, really really love clouds. I used to think, as a child, that heaven was on a cloud so anytime a cloud floated overhead, I thought that it was heaven floating over. I guess, that's probably why I have such a strong attachment to these beautiful things. And the fog, that's like a hug for me. Ah well, with the inevitable plunge in to winter, I will get to see my clouds...and I will see my rain. And I'm sure, long before it's over, I'll whine at least once...or ten times...or so...about how much I hate the rain and the mud. But for now, let me relish my once-forgotten friends. The romance won't last long...just the like the romance with the sun in summer. That's even shorter.

I enjoy the sun so long as it heats the pool...then I want it to go away because , like every year, I don't use the pool...because I don't like having to go out in the sun. Using it in the evening is acceptable...but then it's still hot and kind of muggy. Who likes that? So really, I should just live somewhere where it's cloudy, never hot, and doesn't have a lot of mud...Who's up for a trip to Antarctica?!

Looking for winter,
