SkyWatch- Barn Watch

For more SkyWatch pics from all over the globe, click here.

This was taken about a month ago when our last winter storm blew through. This is looking at the horse barn at dusk and the silver clouds above it.

I've been terribly busy and unable to post as often as I'd like to. I did get some fairly decent shots of lightning a few days ago but have been unable to download, save, post them yet. I'll try for next Friday's SkyWatch.

We've had some funny weather here. Yesterday there was a flash flood warning above us in Strawberry with downpours that lasted hours and hail the size of nickles. and it's HOT! Probably hit 100 the last 2 or 3 days. The sky in the evening is lovely and every time I see a good shot, guess what? No camera!!!

Have a super Friday!

This was taken our first year in Pedro. I still worked in the valley and everyday I drove home by way of Turlock Reservoir and watched the Osprey build thier nests and hatch their young.

Hope you enjoy my version of watching the sky. Have a great weekend!

Watery Wednesday- Happy Mother's Day!

This is Lake Don Pedro! I have been wanting to post this photo for awhile and now is the perfect time. This was taken on Mother's Day 2007. This is my brother Scott's boat and my son Raymond on the tow line. My mom Suzanne, my ex-husband and myself were on our pontoon boat meandering around while Scott, his wife Jodie and my sister Denise were speeding around on his new boat. Raymond was the first on the tube that morning. A few minutes after this photo was taken Scott hit a submerged sand bar/ rock and high centered the boat. It took a tow barge with a crane to lift him off of it several hours later and then they towed him back to the ramp. Scott was very upset that the lake was so darn mean to him that day!!! Did I mention that when the barge came around his boat to get close enough to lift him off the sand bar/ rock the barge captain hit the side of Scott's boat and put a huge hole in the side? It was just not Scott's day!

So this Mother's Day we all decided to stay off the water!

Here's hoping you have a great Mother's Day!

The wind and sun have turned our lovely green hills and meadows a dull brown. A sure sign that summer will be here soon. Hope you have a glorious Wednesday!

I took this photo a few years ago on one of the back-roads when coming home from town. The skies can be so beautifully blue against the lovely green grass and these black and white cows just begged to be photographed. When I first saw it I thought it looked a lot like the Windows background- but better with cows!

This occured a few days ago when we got some unexpected rain. The winds kicked up and the temp dropped. There was even snow in the mtns. The weathermen were stunned. They said it was "lake effect weather" from Lake Tahoe (approx. 60 miles north of us) and something never seen before in our area. It was interesting to watch the rain start to come down like this.

SkyWatch Friday- Good Friday

Sunrise always brings hope.

He was a man and He was God.
He came to earth poor and grew up simple.
He knew what He had to do and He knew what was to come.
He gave His all for me and you and did so without a qualm.
He prayed in a garden before being betrayed.
He asked His Father to take it all away.
Then He lifted His eyes to heaven and softly said,
"Your will not mine be done."
They brutalized Him and humiliated Him.
Throughout His death walk they taunted Him.
When they raised the cross upon which He was nailed,
He said, "Father forgive them, they know not what they do."
For three days He was dead
For three days He carried my sins
For three days all who loved Him wept and tore
For three days all thought Love was gone for sure.
Then there appeared, an angel of God, with good news!
He is here! He is alive! He is not dead!
My Jesus, you came and died for me.
My Jesus you are all to me!
My Jesus is Alive! He is Alive! Alive!

I hope you know the Living God. If not, every church in America is ready to welcome you in this Easter Sunday. I pray you find one so that you too can know my Jesus! My Savior! The one true Living God!

He is Alive!
