Day 3 - 78 -- Pondering Clouds

Clouds seemed to be present everywhere as I flew across the continent today.  Most were the puffy cotton ball like structures, yet many were heavier grey masses filled with moisture of one sort or another. Rain fell in Halifax and snow was in air the looking like fog in the distance for much of the bus ride home from there.

Flying above the clouds is fascinating. It is always sunny if one gets up high enough -- well during the day with stars and moon present in the night flights. Seeing thunderclouds from above is very intriguing and somewhat frightening at the same time. The heavy anvil shaped clouds are strangely beautiful and ominous -- likely from the power that they carry  in their tall stacked structure.  Rain and snow clouds can be deep grey or navy blue. If there are enough of them, individual clouds seem to be lost as they meld together in an interesting cloud crowd. I never tire of watching them out the window of a plane or even the living room. I feel they help the mind wander and ponder to work through things or to go to unexplored places, fueling imagination and creative thought.

The selection today contains some ponderings about clouds from a classic duo. Enjoy!
