Having driven around in a circle through the countryside, we set course for home avoiding further scenic detours.
Clouds were boiling on the horizon
Cresting the hill and rolling down into the valley
I couldn’t decide which view I liked best
Maybe I am guilty of slight overkill?
But when I see skies like this, I expect to hear drum rolls and choirs of angels.
Most of my life, I never got excited about anything. A defense mechanism against disappointment. But excitement and enthusiasm are important, maybe even essential to our existence.
When I came to live in the country, I found sources of excitement that were not dependent on other people or empty promises.
Nature never disappoints.
Thank you, Carolyn, for your words of wisdom!
Your studies of the sky are spectacular!!

So true, nature never disappoints, nor does it lie!
Countryside skies are so different to those in the city. Always something new to behold above us. That said, all we have here is torrential rain. It is getting boring now.
Best wishes, Pete.
I definitely find excitement in your scenic routes! You’re right, Nature offers so much beauty.
