cloud watching


what do you see in the above pic? i see a dog, sitting and begging ... though he seems to have a smile on his face ...

i took this pic the other night ... my blog bud, jel, has some really GREAT cloud pics posted ... this was just one of those whimsical ones ... :o) ... clouds are so relaxing to watch ...

guess what? i got my bike out today!!! YAY! i went for about a 5 mile ride ... it was wonderful ... i was definitely praising my Lord for the health to peddle those wheels and just "fly" around town ...

hope your weekend has been a most blessed one ...

I just keep trusting my Lord, as I walk along,
I just keep trusting my Lord, and He gives a song;
Tho' the storm clouds darken the sky -o'er the heav'nly trail,
I just keep trusting my Lord - He will never fail!
He's a faithful Friend, Such a faithful Friend,
I can count on Him - to the very end;
Tho' the storm clouds darken the sky o'er the heav'nly trail,
I just keep trusting my Lord - He will never fail!

I love clouds, too. Especially when they're lit by the sun in a dramatic way. :)

I had a lovely swim this morning. I spent the afternoon with my plants! :)htt

You live in such an amazingly beautiful place. Was it cold out on the bike? I imagine it is still pretty cold. We're getting ready for our hot weather--planning a lovely wedding reception outside in our backyard the 28th! God bless you guys--enjoyed the Easter blogging! And your comments on mine.

I see the dog, too! And I'm very glad to hear you finally have some bike-riding weather. :)

I saw the dog immediately - isn't that funny!
Boy, it must have warmed up where you are - not so much here yet, but I'm believing warm weather is right around the corner. Enjoy your ride!

j ... that sounds relaxing! i can only dream of swimming ... once the ice is gone off the river, it'll still be another 2 months before it warms up enough for me! in the mean time, i'm happy for my bike! ya!

tina ... :o( ... oooh, yuk! hope it melts as quickly as it came! that is definitely so wrong!

antbk ... an outdoor wedding? awww, how romantic ... hope the SON smiles on you!

catherine ... me too ... *huge grin* ... tho' i only have one more week off, then it is back to the salt mines in the park!

pat ... isn't it a cute dog? :o) ... and it has warmed up to 50F ... which is balmy compared to what it was last week!

sorry, I couldn't see the dog. Maybe its been so long I have lost the ablility to see things in the clouds.lol. when I was a small girl, I used to love to go and lay out in the field on my back and look up at the clouds, then I could see all sorts of wonderful things. connie from Texas

jel ... yes, i can see the lamb too! :o) ... and i have really enjoyed your cloud pics, they are fun to look at!

connie ... the neat thing about clouds is - there is no wrong answer on what we see ... :o) ... if you see puffy clouds, with no animal or vegetation or heavenly host - that is cool too ... blessings on your day!

I love bycicling! I go to work by bike every day (well it takes only 5 minutes). We do bike rides with whole family too. I really enjoy having children old enough to make even rather long trips with them. Can't wait for the summer when we have more time for it!

Saija said...

maggie ann ... hymns really do encourage my heart ... :o)

maiju ... i did another 5 miles or so today ... it goes so quick on a bike and i get to see the town and the towns people!
