Mmmm, prairie clouds…
These are some smaller ones, but they draw the eye nicely. And the rolling hills below just add to the beauty.
I really need to move somewhere with fantastic clouds. Though alas the prairie just doesn’t call to me. I like my land a little bumpier. Which only occasionally mixes well with clouds.
Though really it’s the clear air you need to get fantastic clouds. It’s the haze of pollution and dust that makes the clouds in Maryland boring. The edges blur and the bright white color fades, and they no longer catch the eye.
But then, the air has to travel all the way across the country before it gets here. That’s how it tends to work in this latitude, after all. Frontal boundaries are the order of the day here. Don’t really get monsoon seasons and the other various forms weather can take. And it doesn’t help that the not-so-clean air coming across the continent hits the really-not-so-clean air we produce in this people-heavy area.
Ah well, I keep thinking I should move to someplace with better weather anyway, I’ll just add this to the list of reasons and call it a day.
Maybe one day I should stop thinking about it and actually move…
