SkyWatch ~ and God picked up a brush . . . .

and, with great exuberance



made magic in the skies . . . .



as, with startling suddenness



the dome of sky glowed with pure wonder.



Please enlarge for greatest enjoyment ... if nothing else, at least
the last one.

To be continued, God willing, next week . . .

Other skies open with a click on the little blue Logo.

Thank you SkyWatch Team for the opportunity to share and enjoy.

    The heavens are showing you how glad they are that you're home. They even gave you a bit of a rainbow with the leftover paint.

    Arija, God does use His paint brush every dawn and every dusk and all of the times in between and whether skies of peach and pink perfection as your images have so delightfully captured, or His creation of storm clouds, all are so wonderfully formed, and never two are the same for all of these millions of years...creation...wow. Have a beauitfully blessed weekend dear Arija~

    There is a reason that God shows the most dramatic skies where you live. God wants them to be appreciated and you not only do that, you give thanks by sharing the beauty with us.

    As for my new series. You are in it but you can't have one of my scarves because I have to have India with you, and so tonight, I perused her blog so I may properly drape her Mom with only the best fabric in the world.

    How are you dearest Arija?
