Spectacular Sky






We did Christmas with the brothers yesterday, with pizza, conversation and fun (and this is not pizza to be shrugged off lightly. I don't know where they get it, but it is awaited eagerly every year...pretty special stuff.)




Anyhow, besides getting to hug and enjoy lots of dearly beloved family members we were treated to a truly amazing sky on the way home last night. The sun was setting slowly, and the clouds were outlined with the most amazing glowing yellow I think I have ever seen. We were speeding along in the truck and couldn't stop so I just shot through the windshield, which of course, doesn't do any picture justice. Still you can kind of get an idea of how beautiful it was.

It's always a great day when the family is all together. :)

You really have the eye, for the beautiful is always there, in the instant of our fleeing.

Deb said...

Your right - what a spectacular sky - your photos are great as always.
Family gatherings are wonderful - so glad you could all get together!

Nice! I thought of you yesterday - did you see that item on the news about the best and worst jobs? Here is a link to the story from WSJ in case you didn't hear about it:

I'd love to hear what you think about where "Dairy farmer" was on that list.

sounds like a great day. i'm glad you take the time to notice (and share with us, of course) the little things that make it all worthwhile. :-)

Ah, it almost looks warm in your photos! I heard that the rest of the family is not into farming, I know how that is :)
