Mitsy in the sky...

My Aunt Kay's toy poodle is galloping across the sky this evening, scut tail and all.

It's a good day for pictures in the sky. We saw a bunny rabbit with big floppy ears, a man in a periwig, and Jabba the Hut wearing sun glasses.

Irish Skies

When I was small and full of beans I would run around the fields outside our rented farmhouse and drop to the ground to stare up at the skies passing by.

You may think I mean the clouds, but when you lie down and look up for long enough, the clouds appear to stay still and the sky, or the earth itself, appear to move.

The skies are still passing by, but like most adults I've forgotten mostly that it's okay to stop and just look up. Here are a few recent pictures of what's up there over our heads.
