Well, today has been mostly a wasted one for me...Until a moment ago.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

I looked out my window, and this is what I saw:



And then I felt as though somehow my day had been redeemed...

[In_The_Wind]

1. Yep. We never know when something beautiful is waiting . . .

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. We sure don't, do we? I'm so glad I looked...

Thanks...

[In_The_Wind]

3. me too . . .

[Tuesday Afternoon]

4. usually, I don't like wires in pictures but, this time it makes it! I love the way

the cloud is dancing through the wire. really lovely, Peg.

Good to see you

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Aw, thanks, my dear Tuesday Afternoon...

I really hate those wires! But I don't have the photoshop skills to remove them.......so there they are!

I like your interpretation anyway!

I really haven't felt well today; I took a pain killer that disagreed with me, Big Time. I've metabolized it now, and feel more like myself. And then I saw that little pink cloud...

It was perfect.


Good to see you too, sweetie!

6. beautiful, Peg!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. Thank you, my dear Maine-ah! Glad to see you're OK after that storm!

8. That looks like the clouds that would come out of LTV Steel yards back in the 60's....

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. Who knew that something so pretty could come from something that industrial?

[libodem]

10. Pink!

Hope you are in the pink now.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. It IS very pink, my dear libodem!

I am not quite "that" pink, but doing well, thanks!

[libodem]

13. .

Keep feeling better!!!

12. My dearest Peggy

I could photoshop those wires out for you, but I'm afraid you wouldn't like the result. Part of the appeal of that image is the juxtaposition of the wires and the clouds, don't you think?

[lunatica]

15. If you photoshopped it she could have the best of both versions

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. My dear Duer 157099...

That's awfully sweet of you, offering to do such a thing...

But I agree. The juxtaposition of the wires and the cloud is part of the appeal. I didn't think so at first, when I took the picture, but now I do.

Thank you...

14. You're a woman after my own heart

I love to find beauty in the tiniest fleeting things! Those visual gifts are always around us all the time and most people don't even look for them.

I work on the 10th floor of a building in Berkeley and the view of the Bay is beautiful and vast. Every day is different. Many days start off with fog that burns off to a crystal clear sky. So many of the people I work with just say Ugh when they see the fog. I find it just as beautiful as a sunny day, or a perfectly clear sky. And when the thunderclouds roll it it's as breathtaking as every other kind of weather. Nature is always giving gifts and it's up to us to see them if we want to.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

20. My dear lunatica!

I'm always looking for beautiful things! It makes my life better to do that...

And lucky you, working in such an environment. My husband's parents lived in the Berkeley hills long ago, and we used to drive up on Fish Ranch Road. It is just as you say...

That little pink cloud spoke to me yesterday. I'm so glad it did!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

21. It truly does, my dear Baitball Blogger...Thank you!

Here's to hoping you get many more

Wow, I love that song, and Ella sure does it justice!

Thank you for sharing it with me, and all of us, today...
