A pink sunset is always beautiful. Add a rainbow to the pink sky, and you have an amazing end to the day.

August Neighborhood
Today I’m sharing a few photos I took last month. Let’s start with a photo of a neighbor’s house with a small crepe myrtle in the front yard.

A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood
The post title reminds me of Mr. Rogers. Can’t you hear the little song? It’s playing in my head. I miss his sweet presence on television.
Today’s photos are Florida blue skies with little wispy clouds. I like how the clouds look. I hope you enjoy some Florida blue skies today.

Lakeland’s Blue Skies
Weather here in central Florida is still cooler than I like, but the skies are beautiful. Blue skies with white clouds make a perfect day despite the temperature. (I know folks up north won’t think it’s cool.)

Florida Days
Today I’m sharing photos taken on 3 separate days here in central Florida. The first is the foggy gray morning that can happen in winter. Warm moist winds off the Gulf blow in on cooler moist ground and fog appears. I no longer worry about driving in it since I’m retired. I’ve always enjoyed watching fog and think of Carl Sandberg’s poem. It’s one of my favorites.

January Morning Skies
For the last month as snow storms hit other areas of the country, Florida has gotten multiple cold fronts coming in from the north. You wake up to gray skies, thin gray clouds, and little sun. It looks like snow clouds to me but we’re too far south. Often the cold fronts bring us cold to the bone rain. (I know it’s not cold to northerners but it’s cold to Floridians.) So I am always happy when the gray is blown away and blue skies return with thin wispy white clouds.

Egret in the Garden
Sometimes we only have moments to try to capture special views of nature. First I’d like to share the instance of an egret in my friend’s garden. Egrets in Florida usually come in pairs or groups and forage the yard for food. At a slight movement by a human, away they fly. This time the bird just watched and didn’t leave. Time to attempt to capture a photo or two.

August Florida Weather
Traditionally August in central Florida is 31 days of brilliant hot sun with almost daily thunderstorms in the afternoon or evening. Needless to say it’s muggy.
The other day I took a few mid day photos of the sparkling sky with white clouds. It’s so bright it makes me squint.
