…from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It’s cloud illusions I recall
I really don’t know clouds at all
By the wonderful Joni Mitchel How can she be 71?, I’m shocked.
Anyhow, a couple of evenings ago I was sitting in the garden watching the clouds. I was thinking of Rinda’s Scavenger Hunt and bemoaning the fact that since she published her list I haven’t seen one shape in the clouds. Then all of a sudden I saw this boat with a mast and small flag!
Paul saw it too.
Then I laughed and said that the whole sky was full of popcorn.
He raised his eyebrows a bit (a lot actually)
and then…an elephant came into view.
it is on it’s side, I see the trunk, a couple of legs and it’s small tail?
“I think you better stop with the Mojito’s” he said.
How’s your Scavenger Hunt going?
I’m looking at the sky and thinking of you…
I’m going with the mojitos with that last one! LOL!
Okay, I definitely see the popcorn. But I think I might need a mojito or two for the others! … Now that I look again, I think I might see the elephant. Anyway – looks like a beautiful sky, whatever you see in it!
I’m not having any luck with the clouds! I love that song, but associate it more with Judy Collins who’s rendition of it I loved so much in college. She’ll be coming to Rochester next year, but not to sing. She’s part of the Arts & Lectures series I attend.
great clouds…I see an anteater rather than an elephant! Keep going with the mojitos…
I think the boat is great! Don’t forget to come link up on Wednesday. We can all share cloud stories.

Hi Miriam, thank you for the cloud post link. I love your photographs especially the ship and the popcorn . The elephant made me laugh. I just started my hunt and look forward to catching up with you all. Andy
Love the boat one and got quite a chuckle out of your popcorn one. I think we’ve had a lot of those ones this summer – that is when it isn’t totally clouded over. 🙂
