After a string of gray cloudy days… it was a nice relief to at least get a colorful cloudy day today!

A slightly hazy start & mostly clear skies make for a beautiful sunrise day!

Another chilly morning for long sleeves & gloves… with a crisp wind blowing in with crazy cool clouds for some morning drama! Always fun when the waves are crashing in all around… where timing is everything… kinda makes the sunrise photo shoot more like a lakefront game!!!

While Wednesday morning was quite a different story… much warmer with crazy cool calico-colored clouds! After a long stretch of cloud-free skies, Wednesday brought in a wonderful surprise sunrise… followed by rain! Which is all good… my garden plants were very happy! And we got THIS!!!

Another morning of clear skies… and much cooler temperature! It was a long-sleeves & gloves kinda morning!!! Pretty crazy how fast the temperatures can shift like this… it was 46-degrees when I started out this morning! And here I am still wondering what happened to Summer?! HA!!!

Another morning with totally clear skies… not a cloud to be found anywhere! Just a beautiful orange sky… and a lighthouse structure to play with! Gotta love a good morning bike ride with some silhouette fun!

I hate to say it… but I kinda want some clouds!!! Enough of these “perfect” cloud-free mornings. Sure, they’re pretty and all… but I prefer the morning drama of a good cloud being splashed with sunrise color! Enough of this “perfect” stuff…

Okay, so there was one high-point… a group of sunrise runners out there celebrating someone’s birthday – complete with party hats while they ran by!

Second verse, same as the first… another day just like yesterday! Not a cloud in the sky (almost) and very few people out along the lake. Just a couple bikers… and a few runners possibly still training for next weekend’s marathon? Been there, done that… glad I’m not this year! I’d rather be pedaling…

Not a cloud in the sky… and surprisingly few people out this morning. It was a beautiful ride… kinda like I had the whole lakefront to myself?! I’m guessing that with the beautiful forecast for today, more people will be outside playing this afternoon in the summer temps! I know I will be…

After a long weekend in The Barn, it felt good to have the Ghouls all done, the art fair over with & celebrating with a relaxing morning along the lake. And the sky show did not disappoint!!! Dramatic clouds, crashing waves & moody moments… love them all... before the rain clouds moved in later this morning.
