Happy 1-11-11

I hope everyone had a magical day. :-)

Sky

There's nothing more fascinating to me than the big blue sky. Even more so when it's filled with puffy clouds and the best reason for picture taking.
As I was walking towards Starbucks the other day, I heard a big roaring noise coming from above. Can you see the airplane in the center of the picture? When it flew over my head, it felt as though I could have reached up and touch it. The thing was huge. By the time I took my camera out it was a good distance away.
Lately, it's been happening more often. The rinky dink airport a few miles east has become mecca for private jets. You should see the air traffic during big events in town. Once I counted 4 private jets flying by within a 30 to 45 minute time period. It's understandable during bad weather, a few airplanes are diverted from Lindbergh Field but, holy heck, are they loud.

Yesterday, my dear friend L invited me to the mall. The camera came out almost immediately when I saw the beautiful sky.

The rain stopped for a couple of days, but the clouds linger on making for a gorgeous picture.

Great company with a great friend.

Good conversation with Starbucks in hand.

Lots of shopping fun.

Just a quiet evening at the mall under an amazing sunset sky.

Happy New Year!!

I hope everyone has a "Pocket Full of Sunshine" in 2011!
