Sky Watch Sunrise

I don't get up for the sunrise often, but it's a lot easier in the winter here.
This was taken at 7:59 am, and the sun is not yet over the hill.
That's a time I'm up. The summertime 4:30 am is a little beyond me usually.

Sky Watch Friday

Foggy sunrise.
Snowy day.
Sky meets earth.

Sky Watch Friday - Eastern sunset colors

I know that sounds like I'm a bit daft, but this picture was taken of our eastern view at sunset. The clouds were reflecting so beautifully, you'd think it was sunrise, but it's not. All of the purples and reds didn't quite show up in the photo, either.

Sky Watch Friday

Clouds and sunshine over the cooling towers of the nuclear facility at Elma, on Highway 101 on the way to Olympia.

Skywatch Friday


Summer is here; and the sky is really kind of boring. I wish I could have gotten a picture of the midnight sky last night, though. With the sky being clear, the stars are breathtaking, the Milky Way is spectacular, even the satellites are evident and fun to spot. That would have been a beautiful sky.

Skywatch Friday

We had one of those warm sunny days today that the sun worshippers love - blue skies, light breeze, with everything growing from the rains.
The thermometer on the back deck reached the 80's, though the local airport said it was 75. I believe the 80's - it felt it.

Sky Watch Friday


We had blue skies this afternoon, and much-too-high temperatures. We hit 89 today, a record I believe. It should be in the high 60s tomorrow, and Sunday. Back to normal.
Part of the reason we moved here was for the temperate weather - which we haven't really seen this anomalous year.
It doesn't usually get hot here - we don't even have air conditioning in the house because we don't usually need it. Today we just closed down the curtains and drapes, and stayed cool inside.
