Apparently, here in Kelsey, and elsewhere in the Gold Country, we are about to experience good weather, something that has been a bit rare around here, especially on the weekends!
Last weekend I attended a very wet outdoor wedding, the bride and groom had a large umbrella held over their heads throughout the ceremony. It was a lot of fun. We sat under a large tarp, and as the rain built up at the edge, every so often it would suddenly dump a large pool of water only inches behind the eldest (at 81 years) participant. What excitement! I sat next to her. She managed to stay dry regardless.
I am sharing my cloud pictures as you look to the west from my front porch. I once had a neighbor whose name was Cloud. I would never think to name my daughter Cloud, but I really like the name.

Yes, we who live here in the Foothills of the Sierras really do know clouds this year, don't we?
I have mixed emotions about all of this. I'm tired of the rain but I know that in a month or so I will regret any comment about the abundance of wetness this year.
The heat will come, bringing long hot nights, mosquitoes, rattlesnakes,and the fires we fear so much. Then.... I will miss the beautiful clouds.
I will come back to this post in a month or so and look longingly at these lovely cloud photos.
Hi Farmlady. I bet you get some nice shots of clouds at your home too. I hope I didn't give the impression I don't like the rain. I only dislike it if I have to be trying to walk in it with an umbrella and a cane, which I have found this year can be pretty tough. Otherwise, I do really love it. I will be with you looking longingly at my cloud photos. Tina
I am one of those rare people who never complain about an overcast day, nor clouds - no, nor even the rain. It has been so nice to have had such an unusually cool and damp spring - and I, for one, am not looking forward to the hot summer sun at all. I save my complaining for the HOT days, and I know they will be here soon enough. Don't we all know people who complain about the weather, no matter what it is? They complain about the cold, the rain - and then again come summertime. Not me.
i don't mind cool/cold weather. mainly, cuz once it turns hot - it is unrelenting. i love clouds.
