Description


I Was Up Into The Canadian Rockies Last
Week And We had All Different Weather That Day!
Sun, Wind, Clouds, THUNDER, LIGHTNING and RAIN!

The Storm Was Coming In Fast Here And
The Temperatures Were Dropping!!

It Was a Bit Eerie! To be sure!

Talk about Drama-Rama! Your trio of captures definitely runs the gamut, weather-wise, Pommers!
It must be fascinating to watch the conditions change so rapidly. You did a beautiful job of displaying Nature and all her games. And the Rockies look spectacular! #11067519

Hi Diane, Doug, Terry, SSSKiki, Ellen, Mare, Doug, John, Joy and Mumj!!

Great seeing you all here. Thank you for your great comments! :)))

Diane, Spring and Fall in the Rockies are pretty exciting. We never know what we are getting. (Just ask Kiki!!)

Thanks Doug!!

Terry, I hope you make it here someday! :))

SSSKiki, they miss you, too, but not as much as I do. My dream is that you come live here. Am I too greedy?? :D

Ellen, I didn't but maybe I will? :) Thanks for the vote of confidence!!

Mare, you'd have to be here to believe it. First off we are nearly 3,500 altitude and that doesn't include being on a Rocky. They jut straight up!! We are literately in the clouds at times. And speaking of clouds I have never been to an area in my life that has better clouds than the city I live in. Mixed of many kinds but tons of billowing ones. Amazing, and also we get straight winds. They can be tornado force but they just plow through!!! And FAST! Whoosh! Hang on to the roof! DOWN come tree branches!

Hi John and Bro John!! I'd love a trip to Australia. I'd need a month to do it right since it's so huge and beautiful!!


Thank you also, Joy!

Mumj, I keep telling you. The JAR. The JAR. Start filling the JAR! :))) I have felt you being here seeing it all. Dreams do come true. Start a jar!

Have a great day everyone!!!

-SSSLaura Swanny Pommy Emmy :)
