The sky was a beautiful blue with perfect white clouds - and the vivid colors of this wonderful kite provided the perfect contrast!

This might be a cuddly Panda Bear - big nose, black eyes, mask... or maybe the Michelin Man sporting sunglasses on a bright Florida day!

March 23rd - Yin or Yang?
Definitely in motion, this sky could be growth or destruction. Is it a growing, blooming plant or a storm blowing in?

March 22nd - Cottage Cheese Sky
If it costs $79.95 to install this in your bedroom, I wonder how much the price tag on this baby would be...

I had the urge to scoop this sky into a big cone - I could just taste that tart combination of raspberry and orange!
