Speechless Sunday - Dreaming in Spring - Texas that is!

Dreaming in Spring TX

I love looking at clouds and I found these to be particularly dreamy. After 4 very gloomy days of rain and no clouds (which is unusual here in Spring TX) I thought I would post a little cloud sunshine! I especially like the way the clouds mimic the trees over on the right hand side of the picture.

Marchel, We have had several days of grey and rain too. I hope that it is over for awhile...

Hi Marchel,
Looks like we both were looking at clouds yesterday.  Nature does provide the best photo opportunities, doesn't it?

Hi Marchal:  Please send some of that rain over here, we're so dry that it's prompting fires.  Perhaps this week they tell us.  You're clouds are very dreamy, I dream they raindrop Central Florida ;-)

We were out on the lake yesterday (I protested because it was sprinkling when we got there) and once we stopped and fished a little while the sun came out and I wished so bad I had my camera!  You captured the picture I saw yesterday!  Its been raining here for days too so we were happy to see the sunshine

We had our time of rain last week and are now experiencing dreamy clouds and sun - with you, the "son" is always out.... even when dark cloud and rain appears, right?  right!

(still so very happy for you - we are wearing smiles around here!)

Pretty photo Marchel, I'm thankful we don't have too many gloomy days here in Colorado.  The sun always seems to be shining!  Glad you have the sunshine back!

Marchel  You are a "whiz" with a camera - especially deciding what is worth snapping,  Karen

Nice photo, Marchel.  I used to live in Conroe so I understand about those long periods of rain and clouds.  Except for that, this is a nice time of year, there.

JOAN, WOO HOO the sun is out!!  We had 4 dreary days and it is so nice to see nice blue skys.  I know we have a milder winter than you but I'm ready for spring also.

MIKE, My RELIEF is huge!!  Only three more trips back and forth to Fort Hood and he will be out of the Army.  I'm now saying he is commuting (LOL).  He was happy when he got back to Fort Hood yesterday to find some sun and he called us and told us sun was on the way and it is here today.

WILLIAM, God does some INCREDIBLE Work!!  I love looking at big puffy clouds and making things out of them in my mind.  I saw a Teddy Bear recently but didn't have a camera.

TERESA, After 4 very gloomy days it is soooooooo nice to see the sun again.  We don't have any dreamy clouds today but we have a beautiful blue sky.

RANDY, So was Texas your home at one time?  I love our skies with the puffy clouds!!  I am originally from Kansas and I must say Kansas has a pretty cool sky also.

LYNDA, I miss those skies with all the clouds when they disappear.  I know we are spoiled because we have a lot of days of them.  4 days of gloomy weather was enough for me!!

KAREN ANNE, I'm glad you like my title.  I was hoping people would not think I was NUTS with my play on words.

ROBERT, Thanks for featuring my picture and thanks for giving me a place to post it to.

MICHAEL, WOO HOO the sun is out after 4 gloomy cold days.  I'm a very positive person but I must say 4 days of gloom starts getting to me.

CYNTHIA, I did notice we were both in to the clouds yesterday.  I was so tired of the gloomy weather I was pulling up pictures that had some sun.  Now today was gorgeous but no clouds.

GAIL, I hear you we have been in a drought also.  Even with the 4 days of rain I heard that we are still in the drought.  We were 8 inches short before the rain.  I'm not sure where we are at now.  It did a nice job of greening everything up.

TARA, I captured that one back in January.  We had a gloomy day yesterday.  Today it was beautiful but no clouds.

DIANE, You are right I am still very happy.  I will be so glad when he no longer has to commute to Fort Hood though.  I say commute as he is now coming home every weekend.  He has leave from April 4th to the 27th and then gets out on May 2nd.  He has been gone for most of the time going on five years now so it will be so nice to have him back here locally. 

KAREN, I let my husband take the pictures at our sons ceremony and I figured out the difference.  I just snap tons of pictures so I can find that one good one.  For some reason he is stingy with the snapping.

KIM, I hear you.  We needed rain but about the 4th day I was not happy!!

TERI, I missed a Teddy Bear recently but just didn't have a camera with me.

PATRICIA, Our area is much like Colorado as far as the sun goes, just hotter.  When we moved from Colorado sun days was one of the things I considered.  One of the places we considered only had 60 sun days a year.  I told my husband NO WAY.  Thank goodness it was our decision.  I can't imagine living somewhere with lots of gloomy days.

Sharon, I love your description.  It is full of energy.

MIKE, It is a nice time of year.  At least this rain washed all the pollen away.  I'll bet you remember that green stuff also.

Marchel - I will agree with Joan, clouds look much better than the ton of snow this winter.  This was really a delightful shot, thanks for sharing.

Your clouds look warm and inviting - we are looking for them to come our way in the next month or so.

Marchel, Thanks for sharing the beautiful picture. Reminded me of my childhood when we used to look up at the clouds and imagine what they looked like.
