It was an astonishingly warm sunny day here yesterday, just enough to remind me that spring is indeed coming - though today it is raining. I got outside pronto and rode up and down our street 3 times, and even went around another block once. Then I sat in the sun and enjoyed the warmth, can you believe it! It reached 9°C!
Returning toward the house on one of those loops I opened my eyes enough to see the spectacular sky! Mind you it was really difficult to get a decent picture with my phone.
Today I'm watching the green area in our front yard steadily grow and hoping it will grow even faster. I can't wait for those warm dry spring days to get here so I can go riding about. 'Official' spring will arrive next Tuesday, and after that daytime highs look like they will remain above freezing, or even get warm again, but we have to live through a couple of cold days this weekend first.
Spectacular photo, I sometimes wonder how it would be to be flying through the cotton wool clouds. Roll on those warmer days for you, down here we have some rain, darker mornings, and firewood has arrived, the first lot, some in the shed already, rest is waiting under a tarp!!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking sky!! Glad to hear you got to enjoy some time outside in the sun.
ReplyDeleteYou did a good job capturing that spectacular sky! Lets hope for warm weather and a nice spring.
ReplyDeleteI too like that big Ontario sky shot. Like you, I am looking so much forward to the coming of Spring. Just to feel warmth in the air again will be a biggy.
ReplyDeleteGreat cloud photo!! Yes, Spring is definitely coming.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo of the sky! It's wonderful you were able to get out into the sunshine and fresh air.
ReplyDeleteIf you wouldn't mind sharing some of that warmer weather, I'd appreciate it very much. It was a chilly -22C here this morning, and it is supposed to be colder tomorrow morning. The forecast doesn't appear to suggest we'll be above freezing for the next two weeks. Even so, I'll take the sunshine.
Hurray for spring approaching. It is great that you got out.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very good cloud/sky photograph.
ReplyDeleteRoll-on Spring!
All the best Jan
Beautiful sky you had there. Except for the piles of snow that were cleared from the driveway our snow is gone now, two days ago the ground in the yard was still white.
ReplyDeleteI love the clouds like that and you captured them perfectly! Glad you had a lovely day!
ReplyDeleteActually Monday is the first day of spring this year. I love that sky!!
ReplyDeleteHow great to get out again for a ride! Yay! More to come…soon!
ReplyDeleteIt's that time of year. One day is cold, the next mild.
ReplyDeleteAt least it looks as though you didn't get walloped with snow. A friend who lives in the Adirondacks told me it was waist deep at her house. But that sun is high and warm now, melting it fast. Happy travels!
ReplyDeletewhat a pretty sky, spring is coming here too!!
