Cloud Illusions...

It was an unusual day. The sun shone brightly in the early morning. However by mid morning the clouds rolled in. I left work on my lunch break to run errands. The air had cooled off a bit. As I sat in the drive through at the bank I noticed the clouds. They were beautiful! It was as if God was painting a picture for us. When I finished I decided to take the long way back to work. I had to see these clouds. Hues of Charcoal, slate blue and white filled the skies. In some places it looked like a roaring sea with billowing waves. In another place it looked like peaks of meringue. I drove on but the urge to pull over and gaze at this site became stronger. I stopped at the post office to mail a package. As I sat there I was able to gaze at the sky. I was in awe. My time was running out and I had to get back to the office. As I pulled into the parking lot I saw that the clouds were above us. As I gazed at the clouds it reminded me of when I was a child with bubbles in the sink. I'd gather the bubbles in my hands, squish my hands together then pull them apart watching the bubbles stretch. I wish I had more time and an actual camera instead of my phone. I wanted to keep taking pictures but alas it was back to work. It was an amazing site to see!
